Sure.  I'm not sure what you're asking me to do, though, since f2fs compression
doesn't exist yet.  If/when there are multiple steps that can be combined, then
bio_post_read_processing() can be updated to schedule them together.

We're allocating a new bio.  New bios have NULL ->bi_private.

Actually it's the number of contexts preallocated in the mempool, so I'm going
to call it NUM_PREALLOC_POST_READ_CTXS.  It's similar to
'num_prealloc_crypto_ctxs' in fs/crypto/crypto.c.
