Thanks.  I think this is correct as far as tracing goes.
However the code still looks a bit odd.

The comment for the handling of bio_chain_endio suggests that the *only*
purpose for that is to avoid deep recursion.  That suggests it should be
at the end of the function.
As it is blk_throtl_bio_endio() and bio_unint() are only called on the
last bio in a chain.
That seems wrong.

I'd be more comfortable if the patch moved the bio_chain_endio()
handling to the end, after all of that.
So the function would end.

if (bio->bi_end_io == bio_chain_endio) {
   bio = __bio_chain_endio(bio);
   goto again;
} else if (bio->bi_end_io)
   bio->bi_end_io(bio);

Jens:  can you see any reason why that functions must only be called on
the last bio in the chain?

Thanks,
NeilBrown
