By switching 'mempool_t *' to 'mempool_t' and 'bio_set *' to 'bio_set' you've altered the alignment of members in data structures. So I'll need to audit all the data structures you've modified in DM.
Could we get the backstory on _why_ you're making this change? Would go a long way to helping me appreciate why this is a good use of anyone's time.
Thanks, Mike
