Subject: [PATCH 2/4] block: factor out a bio_await helper
Date: Mon,  6 Apr 2026 07:57:21 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260406055728.472919-3-hch@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260406055728.472919-1-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.

Note that this will now set REQ_SYNC also for the bio_await case for
consistency.  Nothing should look at the flag in the end_io handler,
but if did, having the flag set makes more sense.
