[PATCH v2 24/26] block: Add an explicit bio flag for bios that own their bvec

From: Kent Overstreet
Date: Mon Oct 15 2012 - 16:11:00 EST


This is for the new bio splitting code. When we split a bio, if the
split occured on a bvec boundry we reuse the bvec for the new bio. But
that means bio_free() can't free it, hence the explicit flag.
