block: allow blk_rq_map_kern to append to requests
Use blk_rq_append_bio() internally instead of blk_rq_bio_prep() so blk_rq_map_kern can be called multiple times, to map multiple buffers. This is in the effort to un-export blk_rq_append_bio() Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com> Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
