block: limit block time caching to in_task() context 

We should not have any callers of this from non-task context, but Jakub
ran [1] into one from blk-iocost. Rather than risk running into others,
or future ones, just limit blk_time_get_ns() to when it is called from
a task. Any other usage is invalid.
