The block fops don't try to handle metadata for synchronous requests,
probably because the completion handler looks at dio->iocb which is not
valid for synchronous requests.
But silently ignoring metadata (or warning in case of
__blkdev_direct_IO_simple) is a really bad idea as that can cause
silent data corruption if a user ever shows up.
Instead simply handle metadata for synchronous requests as the completion
handler can simply check for bio_integrity() as the block layer default
integrity will already be freed at this point, and thus bio_integrity()
will only return true for user mapped integrity.

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 reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
