It's confusing that you're splitting the old bio_for_each_segment_all
into multipage and singlepage variants, but bio_for_each_segment_all
continues to exist?

Hmm, the new multipage variant aliases the name bio_for_each_segment_all,
so clearly the _all function's sematics have changed a bit, but its name
and signature haven't, which seems likely to trip up someone who didn't
notice the behavioral change.

Is it still valid to call bio_for_each_segment_all?  I get the feeling
from this patchset that you're really supposed to decide whether you
want one page at a time or more than one page at a time and choose _sp
or _mp?

(And, seeing how this was the only patch sent to this list, the chances
are higher of someone missing out on these subtle changes...)
