cio is allocated with kzalloc() == kmalloc(). So why the kvfree() here ?

long line.

rlist is an array, but rlist naming implies a list. Why not call that
argument "ranges" ?

The argument ordering is also strange. I would make that:

blk_copy_offload(struct block_device *src_bdev,
struct block_device *dst_bdev,
struct range_entry *rlist, int nr_srcs,
gfp_t gfp_mask)

But max_copy_range_sectors is for one sector only, right ? So what is this
second min3() doing ? It is mixing up total length and one range length.
The device should not have reported a per range max length larger than the
total length in the first place, right ? If it does, that would be a very
starnge device...

Shouldn't this be an atomic_t ?

And wrap lines please. Many are too long.

Reverse the if condition and return to avoid the else.

return blk_queue_copy(dest_q) && blk_queue_copy(src_q);

would be simpler.

same comment as above about args order and naming.

Where do you check the number of ranges against what the device can do ?

nr check should be in this function...

...which should be only one function with this one.

This value should be used also when setting the limits in the previous
patch. max_copy_nr_ranges and max_hw_copy_nr_ranges must be bounded by it.

Same for this one. And where does this magic number come from ?

Please describe the fields of this structure. The meaning of them is
really not clear from the names.
