Hi,

This patchse cleans up most of direct access to bvec table in tree, and
these patches are the follow-up of patch1 ~ 16 in the patchset of 'block:
support multipage bvec(V3)'[1]. 

Changes against [1]:
1) split the cleanup patches from [1]
2) address comments from Christoph:
	- introduce bio helpers for dealing with the cleanup
	- move bio_alloc_pages() to bcache

Looks like good cleanups to me. I will apply this for 4.16, thanks.
Hi Jens,

Sorry for forgetting to update in this thread, the latest cleanup patchset
has been included into the following patchset of '[PATCH V4 00/45] block: support
multipage bvec' as patch 1 ~ 17: 

	https://marc.info/?t=151359981400006&r=1&w=2

If possible, please revert this 10 patches in your block-tree, and apply
the whole patchset of '[PATCH V4 00/45] block: support multipage bvec'
on the above link, and the V4 is much more clean than before.

Thanks,
Ming
