From 85b9f66a41eb8ee3f1dfc95707412705463cdd97 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Asias He Date: Thu, 2 Aug 2012 23:42:04 +0200 Subject: block: Add blk_bio_map_sg() helper Add a helper to map a bio to a scatterlist, modelled after blk_rq_map_sg. This helper is useful for any driver that wants to create a scatterlist from its ->make_request_fn method. Changes in v2: - Use __blk_segment_map_sg to avoid duplicated code - Add cocbook style function comment Cc: Rusty Russell Cc: Christoph Hellwig Cc: Tejun Heo Cc: Shaohua Li Cc: "Michael S.
