Subject: [PATCH 2/4] block: factor out a bio_await helper
Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2026 16:03:57 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260401140433.125924-3-hch@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260401140433.125924-1-hch@lst.de>
Add a new helper to wait for a bio and anything chained off it to
complete synchronous after kicking it. This factors common code out
of submit_bio_wait and bio_await_chain and will also be useful for
file system code and thus is exported.
