You might want to call bio_copy_kern_sg from within bio_map_kern_sg
and remove yet another export from bio layer

Same thing with bio_map_user_iov/bio_copy_user_iov

It could be nice to call blk_rq_append_bio() here
and support multiple calls to this member.
This will solve half of my problem with osd_initiator

Hmm .. but you wanted to drop multiple bio chaining
perhaps you would reconsider.

could be inline like with the end_request functions
