Subject: [PATCH v8 0/8] Block cleanups

Since v7:

Split off the deadlock fix, this is now just cleanups

Noticed a minor issue with bio integrity freeing, and decided the best way to
fix it was to just make it use bi_pool directly which simplifies the code
anyways.

Tested the integrity stuff with the scsi debug module.

Cleaned up bio_reset()/bio_free() a bit, introduce a __bio_free() helper used
by both and made bio_free() static.

Kent Overstreet (8):
  block: Generalized bio pool freeing
  block: Ues bi_pool for bio_integrity_alloc()
  dm: Use bioset's front_pad for dm_rq_clone_bio_info
  block: Add bio_reset()
  pktcdvd: Switch to bio_kmalloc()
  block: Kill bi_destructor
  block: Consolidate bio_alloc_bioset(), bio_kmalloc()
  block: Add bio_clone_bioset(), bio_clone_kmalloc()
