Ah good, this looks like it's narrowing things down.

But we already accounted for those bytes at the end. The generic setup
does:
unsigned int back_pad = BIO_INLINE_VECS * sizeof(struct bio_vec);
...
fs_bio_set = bioset_create(BIO_POOL_SIZE, 0, back_pad);
But I notice that you are seeing this with bio-1, not bio-0. So this
must be the one of the pools created by md/dm. Does this help?
I'll probably rework this a bit, perhaps we should just hide the back
padding functionality and force it to be used for vec inlining only.
Then it becomes invisible to the users.
