Have you considered to use bio_copy_dev() instead of open-coding it?
Additionally, there is more code that copies these fields, e.g. the code in
bio_clone_bioset(). Shouldn't that code be modified such that it also copies
bi_partno?
How about the following class of assignments in drivers/md/raid1.c:
mbio->bi_disk = (void *)conf->mirrors[i].rdev;
Should these assignments perhaps be followed by a mbio->bi_partno assignment?
How about the following class of assignments in the NVMe code:
bio->bi_disk = disk;
Should these assignments perhaps be followed by a bio->bi_partno assignment?
Thanks,
Bart.
