bi_rw should be using bio_set_op_attrs to set bi_rw.
Looks fine,

Jens,

what do you think about renaming bi_rw?  There aren't too many users
left, and any old code that would keep using it is alsmost guranteed
to be broken, so sending a post-rc1 patch to rename it might make
everyone else life easier.  Especially as it's also grossly misnamed
now.
I was planning on doing that, after -rc1. Much better to get build
breakage, than potentially much worse breakage.
