I just cut and pasted that from blk_update_request(), which is what the
next patch refactors...

But yes it would be a bug. It gets converted to a BUG_ON() in a later
patch (not in this series), as this gets further abstracted into a
wrapper around bvec_advance_iter() which doesn't know about struct bio
(as bio integrity gets its own iterator).

Might drop it entirely, depending on what exactly I end up doing with
bi_vcnt...
