I just look into patch 3 about the use, seems what you need is for_each_bvec_all(),
which is safe & efficient to use when freeing the host data(bio or bip), but can't
be used in split bio/bip, in which the generic iterator is needed.
And you can open-code it in bio_integrity_unmap_user():
for (i = 0; i < bip->bip_vcnt; i++) {
struct bio_vec *v = &bip->bip_vec[i];
...
}
Thanks,
Ming
