OK So first this confirms that for ages the ub.c driver was leaking BIO's
on first connection. Just that it was never noticed before.

or that we have a BLOCK_PC at hand but before the 7d699baf patch
we completed with - rq->hard_nr_sectors << 9 - where now blk_rq_bytes(rq)
will return 218 which is less. Could you also put rq->hard_nr_sectors
in the print above?

Did you mange to find what is that 218 bytes command. Put a WARN_ON(1)
in ub_request_fn_1 for any command that has a blk_rq_bytes(rq) of 218
so we'll see who issues these commands. And what is the real bug.
