bio_readpage_error currently uses bi_vcnt to decide if it is worth retrying an I/O. But the vector count is mostly an implementation artifact - it really should figure out if there is more than a single sector worth retrying. Use bi_size for that and shift by PAGE_SHIFT. This really should be blocks/sectors, but given that btrfs doesn't support a sector size different from the PAGE_SIZE using the page size keeps the changes to a minimum.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
