The `__bio_chain_endio` function, which was intended to serve only as a
flag, contains faulty completion logic. When called, it decrements the
`bi_remaining` count on the *next* bio in the chain without checking its
own.
Consider a bio chain where `bi_remaining` is decremented as each bio in
the chain completes.
For example, if a chain consists of three bios (bio1 -> bio2 -> bio3)
with bi_remaining count:
1->2->2
if the bio completes in the reverse order, there will be a problem.
if bio 3 completes first, it will become:
1->2->1
then bio 2 completes:
1->1->0
Because `bi_remaining` has reached zero, the final `end_io` callback for
the entire chain is triggered, even though not all bios in the chain have
actually finished processing.
As a quick fix, removing `__bio_chain_endio` and allowing the standard
`bio_endio` to handle the completion logic should resolve this issue,
as `bio_endio` correctly manages the `bi_remaining` counter.
