Looking at the other call sites do we need something like following ?
Since __blk_queue_bounce() passes the NULL for the passthru case as a
bio_set value ?
Well, that is a somewhat odd calling convention.  What about the patch below

I assume you are sending this patch, let me know otherwise.
If you do please add, looks good.
I'll split the gfp_mask cleanup out, and will submit it with your as
