Yeah, that is the most common example, given merge is enabled
in most of cases. If the driver or device doesn't care merge,
you can disable it and always get single bio request, then the
bio's bvec table can be reused for send().

Does bvec_iter span bvecs with your patches? I didn't see that change?

Wait, I see that the bvec is still a single array per bio. When you said
a table I thought you meant a 2-dimentional array...

Unless I'm not mistaken, I think that the change is pretty simple then.
However, nvme-tcp still needs to be bio aware unless we have some
abstraction in place.. Which will mean that nvme-tcp will need to
open-code bio_bvecs.
