I uhmed and arhhed about that. The function is so small....
But I've had a change of heart. I don't think that having separate
bio_endio() and bio_endio_notrace() is such a good idea. It is too easy
to use the wrong one. It is much better to make it automatically do the
right thing.
So following is a new patch - more thoroughly tested - which handles
more cases, and doesn't need any follow-up changes for filesystems.
Thanks,
Neilbrown
