SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/5] block: Make generic_make_request handle arbitrary sized bios

How did we arrive at a mempool size of 4 to make sure we can always make
progress with arbitrarily sized bios? Shouldn't we document the design
decision somewhere?

One fallout of this should be that it would allows us to impement
a range UNMAP/TRIP much more easily, which would help dramatically
with TRIM performance!
