[PATCH v6 06/13] block: Consolidate bio_alloc_bioset(), bio_kmalloc()

From: Kent Overstreet
Date: Wed Aug 22 2012 - 13:06:49 EST


Previously, bio_kmalloc() and bio_alloc_bioset() behaved slightly
different because there was some almost-duplicated code - this fixes
that issue.

This'll also help with some future cleanups - there are a fair number of
functions that allocate bios (e.g. bio_clone()), and now they don't have
to be duplicated for bio_alloc(), bio_alloc_bioset(), and bio_kmalloc().
