    block: don't allow multiple bios for IOCB_NOWAIT issue · 67d59247
    Jens Axboe authored
    If we're doing a large IO request which needs to be split into multiple
    bios for issue, then we can run into the same situation as the below
    marked commit fixes - parts will complete just fine, one or more parts
    will fail to allocate a request. This will result in a partially
    completed read or write request, where the caller gets EAGAIN even though
    parts of the IO completed just fine.
    
    Do the same for large bios as we do for splits - fail a NOWAIT request
    with EAGAIN. This isn't technically fixing an issue in the below marked
    patch, but for stable purposes, we should have either none of them or
    both.
    
    This depends on: 613b1488 ("block: handle bio_split_to_limits() NULL return")
