Please split out a separate patch just for the changes to
nvme_add_user_metadata.

Nit: Please keep the successful path in line and branch out for the
errors, i.e.
if (ret != len) {
ret = -ENOMEM;
goto out_free_meta;
}
req->cmd_flags |= REQ_INTEGRITY;
return buf;
We should have done this already with the old code, but now that more
is added to the success path it becomes even more important:.

While you touch this: I think thi block of code would also be a good
separate helper. Maybe even in the block layer given the the scsi
ioctl code and sg duplicate it, and already missed the fast_iov
treatment due to the duplication. Having this in a separate function
is also nice to keep the fast_iov stack footprint isolated.

I think we can also do away with this bio local variable now.

We don't need the bio_set_dev here as mentioned last time, so I think
we should remove it in a prep patch.

Nit: Add an extra tab for indentation here please.

if (d.timeout_ms)
req->timeout = msecs_to_jiffies(d.timeout_ms);
