ok, can you sincerely tell me that your change makes the code more
readable? And have you checked to see what the compiler actually
"optimizes"?

original code:

	movq	$mpage_end_io_read, %rdx	#, tmp65
	movq	$mpage_end_io_write, %rax	#, tmp64
	cmpl	$1, %edi	#, rw
	cmovne	%rdx, %rax	# tmp65,, tmp64
	movq	%rax, 80(%rsi)	# tmp64, <variable>.bi_end_io
	.loc 1 91 0
	call	submit_bio	#

your change:

	movq	$mpage_end_io_read, %rdx	#, tmp63
	movq	$mpage_end_io_write, %rax	#, iftmp.561
	cmpl	$1, %edi	#, rw
	cmovne	%rdx, %rax	# tmp63,, iftmp.561
	movq	%rax, 80(%rsi)	# iftmp.561, <variable>.bi_end_io
	.loc 1 90 0
	call	submit_bio	#

so that change does nothing except obfuscating the source a bit more so
that you get more headaches whenever you look at it.
