The patch looks fine to me, but I'd really like to see a bit more
changelog here. The commit message should explain why the change
is made, rather it's a very brief explanation of what it does.

If the bio list is contiguous, then we do the plugging to improve
merging at the lower level. You probably ran into a case where
you saw sub-optimal merging? And now the performance is better
with the patch? How much?
