The I/O context structure is only used to pass the btrfs_device to the end I/O handler for I/Os that go to a single device. Stop allocating the I/O context for these cases by passing the optional btrfs_io_stripe argument to __btrfs_map_block to query the mapping information and then using a fast path submission and I/O completion handler. As the old btrfs_io_context based I/O submission path is only used for mirrored writes, rename the functions to make that clear and stop setting the btrfs_bio device and mirror_num field that is only used for reads.

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.
