This consolidation provides no significant value as bio chains increase beyond a reasonable minimum size. On the other hand, this does hold significant numbers of pages in the writeback state across an unnecessarily large number of bios because the ioend is not processed for completion until the final bio in the chain completes. Cap an individual ioend to a reasonable size of 4096 pages (16MB with 4k pages) to avoid this condition.
