We need to either decided if the bdev is mandatory and we can rely
on it, or stop adding conditionals based on it. NAK for anything
adding more if bio->bi_bdev in this path.
But more important I'm not sure why we need all this extra code to
start with. If you just did an extra for more space than we want
to submit, just release the pages that we grabbed but don't want to
add instead of adding them to be bio_vec.
Remember this is an absolute fast path for high IOPS I/O, we should
avoid adding cruft to it.
