Subject: [PATCH v3 0/9] Fix bio chain related issues

From: Shida Zhang <zhangshida@...inos.cn>

Hi all,

While investigating another problem [mentioned in v1], we identified
some buggy code in the bio chain handling logic. This series addresses
those issues and performs related code cleanup.

Patches 1-3 fix incorrect usage of bio_chain_endio().
Patches 4-9 clean up repetitive code patterns in bio chain handling.

v3:
- Remove the dead code in bio_chain_endio and drop patch 1 in v2 
- Refined the __bio_chain_endio changes with minor modifications (was
  patch 02 in v2).
- Dropped cleanup patches 06 and 12 from v2 due to an incorrect 'prev'
  and 'new' order.

v2:
- Added fix for bcache.
- Added BUG_ON() in bio_chain_endio().
- Enhanced commit messages for each patch

  md: bcache: fix improper use of bi_end_io
  block: prohibit calls to bio_chain_endio
  block: prevent race condition on bi_status in __bio_chain_endio
  block: export bio_chain_and_submit
  xfs: Replace the repetitive bio chaining code patterns
  block: Replace the repetitive bio chaining code patterns
  fs/ntfs3: Replace the repetitive bio chaining code patterns
  zram: Replace the repetitive bio chaining code patterns
  nvdimm: Replace the repetitive bio chaining code patterns
