linux-next: build failure after merge of the device-mapper tree

Hi all,

After merging the device-mapper tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

drivers/md/dm-writecache.c: In function 'writecache_dtr':
drivers/md/dm-writecache.c:1799:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'bioset_free'; did you mean 'bvec_free'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
bioset_free(wc->bio_set);
^~~~~~~~~~~
bvec_free
drivers/md/dm-writecache.c: In function 'writecache_ctr':
drivers/md/dm-writecache.c:1929:17: error: implicit declaration of function 'bioset_create'; did you mean 'bioset_exit'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
wc->bio_set = bioset_create(BIO_POOL_SIZE,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~
bioset_exit
drivers/md/dm-writecache.c:1929:15: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Wint-conversion]
wc->bio_set = bioset_create(BIO_POOL_SIZE,
^

Caused by commit

2105231db61b ("dm: add writecache target")

interacting with commit

dad08527525f ("block: Drop bioset_create()")

from the block tree.

Can we please consider not immediately dropping APIs if at all
possible. :-(

I have added the following merge fix patch (hopefully this is enough):
