You're spelling needs to be fixed in these messages.

So why is it named "submit_bio_noacct" when it's supposed to be only
used by layers submitting to lower level drivers. How can this be
figured out by drivers automatically, so the writed doesn't have to
know about this?

Firstly isn't proper english. Maybe something like:
submit_bio_noacct - re-submit a bio which needs to be handled first
because <reasons> to the block device layer for I/O
But the name still sucks, and the *reason* the bio needs to be handled
differently isn't well explained.
