Recently found a bug where a driver left bi_next not NULL and then called bio_endio(), and then the submitter of the bio used bio_copy_data() which was treating src and dst as lists of bios. Fixed that bug by splitting out bio_list_copy_data(), but in case other things are depending on bi_next in weird ways, add a warning to help avoid more bugs like that in the future.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
