Commitf6970f83ef("block: don't check if adjacent bvecs in one bio can be mergeable") changes bvec merge by only considering two bvecs from different bios. However, if the former bio doesn't inlcude any io bvec, then the following warning may be triggered: warning: ‘bvec.bv_offset’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] In practice, it shouldn't be triggered. Fixes it by adding check on former bio, the check shouldn't add any cost given 'bio->bi_iter' can be hit in cache.

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.
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.
