From: olaf.kirch@xxxxxxxxxx Allocate smaller clones With the previous dm-crypt fixes, there is no need for the clone bios to have the same bvec size as the original - we just need to make them big enough for the remaining number of pages. The only requirement is that we clear the "out" index in convert_context, so that crypt_convert starts storing data at the right position within the clone bio.
