Something is odd about this report. Seems like the new sparse errors
were caused by this commit, not the one I sent that was noted at the top
of this email.

Looks like the arguments in bio_alloc_bioset are incorrectly reversed in
609be10667 and this hasn't been fixed yet, at least not in Linus's tree.

The patch I sent (b0920ede081b3f) may have introduced some of the rdev
sparse warnings in this report, but these were fixed up a couple commits
later (4f4ee2bf3).
