Hi Jens,

The patches in this series are what I came up with as the result of
analyzing Alexander Potapenko's report about reading from null_blk.
Please consider these patches for kernel v5.8.

Thanks,

Bart.

Bart Van Assche (5):
  block: Fix type of first compat_put_{,u}long() argument
  bio.h: Declare the arguments of bio iteration functions const
  block: Document the bio_vec properties
  block: Fix zero_fill_bio()
  null_blk: Zero-initialize read buffers in non-memory-backed mode
