Ming, I'm pulling this, I thought we agreed none of these bullshit
renames? The fact that a patch looks like this:

-               for_each_bvec(bv, (it)->bvecs, __cur_iter, __cur_iter)        \
+               for_each_segment(bv, (it)->bvecs, __cur_iter, __cur_iter)     \

is SUPER annoying and does NOTHING but to cause merge conflicts.

Resend it without that.
