bdev_get_integrity() and bdev_get_tag_size() are being used by stacking drivers and filesystems to prepare I/O. It's correct that none of the in-tree stuff currently uses bdev_get_tag_size(). That's coming with the btrfs support. If you want to pull that out for now and have me put that back later in that's ok. Just adds another two-stage merge dependency for a later cycle.
bdev_integrity_enabled() and blk_integrity_tuple_size() are only being used from within bio-integrity.c and can move there. I originally put them in blkdev.h because they are block device functions and not bio ditto.
Want me to submit a new patch shuffling bdev_get_integrity() back where it came from?
