Since commit 87374179 ("block: add a proper block layer data direction
encoding") we only OR the new op and flags into bi_opf in bio_set_op_attrs
instead of clearing the old value.  I've not seen any breakage with the
new behavior, but it seems dangerous.

Hello Christoph,

Have you verified whether or not this change affects the behavior of the 
bcache driver? From commit ad0d9e76a412:

@@ -114,7 +114,7 @@ void bch_data_verify(struct cached_dev *dc, struct 
bio *bio)
         check = bio_clone(bio, GFP_NOIO);
         if (!check)
                 return;
-       check->bi_rw |= READ_SYNC;
+       bio_set_op_attrs(check, REQ_OP_READ, READ_SYNC);

         if (bio_alloc_pages(check, GFP_NOIO))
                 goto out_put;

Additionally, since bio_set_op_attrs is a macro please surround 'op' and 
'op_flags' with parentheses or change this macro into an inline function.

Thanks,

Bart.

It doesn't, bcache only calls bch_data_verify from a read completion
handler.

Makese sense, thanks.
