Looks like you weren't CC'ed on the original thread. About an hour ago.

Let's keep it small for 4.12. We can do a cleanup on top of this for
4.13.

Should only be an issue for on-stack bio's, since we don't go through
the put/free path. Did a quick grep, looks like this is one of 3. One
is floppy, which probably neither has DIF or uses blk-throttle. Then
there's one in dm-bufio, didn't look too closely at that. Last one is
this one.
