The mem_flags argument can be removed. It is GFP_KERNEL from all the
places it is called.
Thought it was better to have the flexibility in a helper function, but
we can always add it later on if needed...
is_vector, will be better to do nr_ppas (or similar name). Then
pblk_submit_read/pblk_submit_read_gc are a bit cleaner.
We can do that too, yes.

Wrt to is_vector, does it matter if we just set ppa_list and
dma_ppa_list? If we have them, we use them, else leave them alone?
If we only have 1 address then ppa_addr is set and the ppa_list attempt
to free in the completion path interpreting ppa_addr as the dma address.
So I don't think so - unless I'm missing something?
In that case, we could drop is_vector/nr_ppas all together? That would
be nice.

Looks like setup/clear is mainly about managing the metadata. Would
pblk_alloc_rqd_meta()/pblk_free/rqd_meta be better names? Unless we
can fold it all into pblk_alloc_rqd/pblk_free_rqd.
It's not easy to fold them there as we use nvm_rq allocations without
extra space in the rqd for metadata. This is also a problem for rqd
allocated in the stack. But I can change the names to make the
functionality more clear.
Yep, that was what I felt as well. Renaming will be good.
