Yes, but if you want to push some of the these bug fixes in stable (as martin had said), we need to introduce that bip->bio_vec pointer early. Also that next patch is doing lot other other things like getting rid of bip_slabs and we don't require all that to fix this particular bug. In fact I would say that it is beter to fix this blk integrity bug in a separate patchset so that it can be pushed out earlier.
