xfs: don't release bios on completion immediately
Completion of an ioend requires us to walk the bufferhead list to end writback on all the bufferheads. This, in turn, is needed so that we can end writeback on all the pages we just did IO on. To remove our dependency on bufferheads in writeback, we need to turn this around the other way - we need to walk the pages we've just completed IO on, and then walk the buffers attached to the pages and complete their IO. In doing this, we remove the requirement for the ioend to track bufferheads directly. To enable IO completion to walk all the pages we've submitted IO on, we need to keep the bios that we used for IO around until the ioend has been completed. We can do this simply by chaining the bios to the ioend at completion time, and then walking their pages directly just before destroying the ioend.
