Hello,

Now that we've got generic code for freeing bios allocated from bio
pools, this isn't needed anymore.

This also changes the semantics of bio_free() a bit - it now also frees
bios allocated by bio_kmalloc(). It's also no longer exported, as
without bi_destructor there should be no need for it to be called
anywhere else.

v5: Switch to BIO_KMALLOC_POOL ((void *)~0), per Boaz

Does this chunk belong to this patch?

What's wrong with good ol' NULL?

Thanks.
