[PATCH 2/5] mtip32xx: handle arbitrary size bios

From: Kent Overstreet
Date: Mon Nov 25 2013 - 17:31:14 EST


We get a measurable performance increase by handling this in the driver when
we're already looping over the biovec, instead of handling it separately in
generic_make_request() (or bio_add_page() originally)
