Hi

I nack this. This just adds code that can't ever be executed.

dm-crypt already allocates enough entries in the vector (see "unsigned int 
nr_iovecs = (size + PAGE_SIZE - 1) >> PAGE_SHIFT;"), so bio_add_page can't 
fail.

If you want to add __must_check to bio_add_page, you should change the 
dm-crypt code to:
if (!bio_add_page(clone, page, len, 0)) {
	WARN(1, "this can't happen");
	return NULL;
}
and not write recovery code for a can't-happen case.
