May I suggest that, if you intend to assign something that is not a
plain &(struct bio_list), but a &(struct bio_list[2]),
you change the task member so it is renamed (current->bio_list vs
current->bio_lists, plural, is what I did last year).
Or you will break external modules, silently, and horribly (or,
rather, they won't notice, but break the kernel).
Examples of such modules would be DRBD, ZFS, quite possibly others.
Thanks,
Lars
