[PATCH v2 2/7] block: Rework bio_split() return value
Posted by John Garry 3 weeks, 6 days ago
Instead of returning an inconclusive value of NULL for an error in calling
bio_split(), return a ERR_PTR() always.

Also remove the BUG_ON() calls, and WARN_ON_ONCE() instead. Indeed, since
almost all callers don't check the return code from bio_split(), we'll
crash anyway (for those failures).

Fix up the only user which checks bio_split() return code today (directly
or indirectly), blk_crypto_fallback_split_bio_if_needed(). The md/bcache
code does check the return code in cached_dev_cache_miss() ->
bio_next_split() -> bio_split(), but only to see if there was a split, so
there would be no change in behaviour here (when returning a ERR_PTR()).

(hopefully I'll remember the change when I forward port my new code
using it :))
