John Garry e546fe1da9 block: Rework bio_split() return value
Instead of returning an inconclusive value of NULL for an error in calling
bio_split(), return a ERR_PTR() always.

Also remove the BUG_ON() calls, and WARN_ON_ONCE() instead. Indeed, since
almost all callers don't check the return code from bio_split(), we'll
crash anyway (for those failures).

Fix up the only user which checks bio_split() return code today (directly
or indirectly), blk_crypto_fallback_split_bio_if_needed(). The md/bcache
code does check the return code in cached_dev_cache_miss() ->
bio_next_split() -> bio_split(), but only to see if there was a split, so
there would be no change in behaviour here (when returning a ERR_PTR()).

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.
