I guess we shouldn't have optimized for the case of non-cloned bio, could you
try the following patch?

--
diff --git a/include/linux/bio.h b/include/linux/bio.h
index 1e7248f..4abc129 100644
--- a/include/linux/bio.h
+++ b/include/linux/bio.h
@@ -267,11 +267,6 @@ static inline void bio_get_last_bvec(struct bio *bio, struct bio_vec *bv)
struct bvec_iter iter = bio->bi_iter;
int idx;

- if (!bio_flagged(bio, BIO_CLONED)) {
- *bv = bio->bi_io_vec[bio->bi_vcnt - 1];
- return;
- }
-
if (unlikely(!bio_multiple_segments(bio))) {
*bv = bio_iovec(bio);
return;
Thanks,
Ming
