Oh crap, sorry! I had to fix it by hand and I messed up fixing
the conflict! I've just dropped the first dio_bio_submit() so
that only the conditional one remains now.

Thanks for reporting it!

commit d75e8540fd8bedc8ee8d11941a7aed3a86735c47

direct-io: Prevent NULL pointer access in submit_page_section

commit 899f0429c7d3eed886406cd72182bee3b96aa1f9 upstream.

In the code added to function submit_page_section by commit b1058b981,
sdio->bio can currently be NULL when calling dio_bio_submit. This then
leads to a NULL pointer access in dio_bio_submit, so check for a NULL
bio in submit_page_section before trying to submit it instead.

Fixes xfstest generic/250 on gfs2.
