I think this patch can go alone seperately because the
correctness is okay and cross-subsystem git merge is
a bit of churn.

I've pushed an chunk merging patch individually to -next
for this cycle too, and it should fix too many bios issue,
but even without that patch it won't impact the correctness
(just less performant.) I assume both patches will upstream
in the near future.

Thansk,
