[dm-devel] RE: [PATCH 6/7] blk_end_request: remove/unexport end_that_request_*

Boaz raised my attention to this patchset today...
We suspect we'll still need the extern entry points for handling the bidi 
request in the scsi_io_completion() path as we only want to call
end_that_request_chunk on req->next_rq and never
end_that_request_last.
 
(see 
http://www.bhalevy.com/open-osd/download/linux-2.6.23-rc2_and_iscsi-iscsi-2007_08_09/0005-SCSI-bidi-support.patch)
 
If this is ok with you I'd leave these entry points in place rather than
taking them out and putting them back in later.
 
Benny
