Subject: [LTP] ltp_tbio kernel module fails to build with recent kernel

Hi!
Looks like the test was broken by kernel commit:
commit 4f024f3797c43cb4b73cd2c50cec728842d0e49e
Author: Kent Overstreet <kmo@daterainc.com>
Date: Fri Oct 11 15:44:27 2013 -0700
block: Abstract out bvec iterator
Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To
implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done
member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames
things.
That moves the a few things into separate structure, which has been added to linux-3.14.
And by:
commit ddad8dd0a162fde61646a627a3017c258601dc8a
Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Date: Sun Jan 18 16:16:29 2015 +0100
block: use blk_rq_map_user_iov to implement blk_rq_map_user
That removed the bio_map_user() which was only wrapper around bio_map_user_io()
which went in to linux-3.20.
These changes does not look particulary scary so it may be relatively easy to
adapt the module to work with newer kernels as well.
