[PATCH 15/26] block: Generic bio chaining

[Kent Overstreet]

This adds a generic mechanism for chaining bio completions. This is
going to be used for a bio_split() replacement, and some other things in
the future.

This is implemented with a new bio flag that bio_endio() checks; it
would definitely be cleaner to implement chaining with a bi_end_io
function, but since there's no limits on the depth of a bio chain (and
with arbitrary bio splitting coming this is going to be a real issue)
using an endio function would lead to unbounded stack usage.

Tail call optimization could solve that, but CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER
disables gcc's tail call optimization (-fno-optimize-sibling-calls) - so
we do it the hacky but safe way.
