does it have any dependency on:

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] bio: define __BIOVEC_PHYS_MERGEABLE
No, they're independent. Defining __BIOVEC_PHYS_MERGEABLE will be useful for the Xen changes I need to make in the wake of Tomo's patch.
ok - applied to tip/x86/xen, thanks Jeremy! (also added Jens's Acked-by)
build failure, zapped it:

fs/bio.c: In function '__bio_add_page':
fs/bio.c:443: error: implicit declaration of function '__BIOVEC_PHYS_MERGEABLE'
What patch(es) did you apply?

the one i replied to (2/2), and which one Jeremy said was independent of 1/2. Not so much it appears.

Sorry, miscommunication. I meant you should apply 1/2, and drop 2/2.
