Another interesting thing is that bio_add_page() is capable of adding multi contiguous pages actually, especially loop uses ITER_BVEC to pass multi-page bvecs. Even though pages in loop's ITER_BVEC may belong to user-space, looks it is still safe to not grab the page ref given it has been done by fs.
