I realize if any of these BUG_ON checks hits the calling target code has
a bug.  I just think it a fairly harsh response to BUG the system.  But
I can let this issue go.

I do however want you to add yet another BUG_ON for any bio that isn't
meant to be sent to this interface (only one so far is REQ_FLUSH AFAIK).
