Subject: [PATCH v2 3/7] fs: use on-stack-bio if backing device has BDI_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS capability

There is no need to use dynamic bio allocation for BDI_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS
devices. They can with on-stack bio without concern about waiting
bio allocation from mempool under heavy memory pressure.

Hi Mattew,

I didn't use sbvec[nr_pages] as you suggested[1] because I don't think
it's pointless in do_mpage_readpage which works per-page base as
I replied to you.
If I misunderstood something, please correct me.
