<title>block: Kill bi_destructor</title>

<content type='text'>
Now that we've got generic code for freeing bios allocated from bio
pools, this isn't needed anymore.

This patch also makes bio_free() static, since without bi_destructor
there should be no need for it to be called anywhere else.

bio_free() is now only called from bio_put, so we can refactor those a
bit - move some code from bio_put() to bio_free() and kill the redundant
bio-&gt;bi_next = NULL.

v5: Switch to BIO_KMALLOC_POOL ((void *)~0), per Boaz
v6: BIO_KMALLOC_POOL now NULL, drop bio_free's EXPORT_SYMBOL
v7: No #define BIO_KMALLOC_POOL anymore

There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other
Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are
caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the
Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd.

Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text
they were part of.

Code has been converted over to the new explicit on-stack plugging,
and delay users have been converted to use the new API for that.
So lets kill off the old plugging along with aops-&gt;sync_page().

- It looks incorrect to use blk_rq_map_sg with pci_map_page here about
  DMA mappings. dma_map_sg?

- better to use dma_map_page instead of pci_map_page.
