    What purpose does loop_make_request's blk_queue_bounce serve?  None, it's
    just a relic from before the kmaps were added to loop's transfers, and ties
    up mempooled resources - in the file-backed case, with no guarantee they'll
    soon be freed.  And what purpose does loop_set_fd's blk_queue_bounce_limit
    serve?  None, blk_queue_make_request did that.
