There is no need to disable interrupts in bio_copy_block, and the local
only mappings helps to avoid any sort of problems with stray writes
into the bio data.

From one of the functions called by kunmap_local():

unsigned long addr = (unsigned long) vaddr & PAGE_MASK;

This won't work well if bvec->bv_offset >= PAGE_SIZE I assume?

Thanks,

Bart.

It won't indeed.  Both the existing and new helpers operate on single
page bvecs only, and all callers only use those.  I should have
probably mentioned that in the cover letter and documented the
assumptions in the code, though.
