Looking back, I obviously rushed the last patch out. This merge patch,
and the resulting loop.c, fix my problem. My code is working with Jens'
block tree now.

Jens,
I ended up replacing a call to bio_iovec_idx() with __bvec_iter_bvec()
since the former was removed. It's not very elegant, but it works. I'm
open to suggestions on a cleaner fix, but it can wait until one or both
of these trees is merged.

I'll be out next week away from internet access, so I'm looking at the
later half of the merge window.

Thanks,
Shaggy
