As expected there are complexities ahead:
- Iterations on bio_vec should actually use bio_for_each_segment (for bio_vec) 
and I was not intendeing to maintain a bigger rewrite
- as shown for backward compatibility this 
- upstream has given up and removed it

I think I have a way for some backportability (5.3) but not yet tested
4.15 and didn't check what Debian might need.

I'd want to talk with Luca first, to decide if we should follow upstream and 
remove it.
Or just do so from newer releases (we will remove it for 19.11 anyway), but 
also adapt the tests to not fail on >5.4 in older releases - it has some right 
to stay for <5.4 kernels without causing too much work for now. Best would be 
if there is some DKMS trickery to mark it only valid <5.4 maybe?
