I'm kind of shocked this works today. Usually bvecs coalesce adjacent
pages into a single entry, so you need to use a real iterator like
bio_for_each_folio_all() to extract individual pages from a bvec.
Maybe the sio bvec is constructed inefficiently.

I think Kent had some bvec folio iterators in progress?

I'll convert bio_first_page_all() to bio_first_folio_all() in a v2.

count_vm_events(PSWPIN, sio->pages);
} else {
for (p = 0; p < sio->pages; p++) {
- struct page *page = sio->bvec[p].bv_page;
+ struct folio *folio = page_folio(sio->bvec[p].bv_page);
- SetPageError(page);
- ClearPageUptodate(page);
- unlock_page(page);
+ folio_set_error(folio);
+ folio_clear_uptodate(folio);
+ folio_unlock(folio);
Similar questions to the last patch -- who checks the error flag on this
page/folio, and isn't the folio already !uptodate?

Yes, the folio is already !uptodate. I'll drop this line.
Maybe wait_dev_supers() in fs/btrfs/disk-io.c checks the PageError()?
