+ * Historically, a buffer_head was used to map a single block
+ * within a page, and of course as the unit of I/O through the
+ * filesystem and block layers. Nowadays the basic I/O unit
+ * is the bio, and buffer_heads are used for extracting block
+ * mappings (via a get_block_t call), for tracking state within
+ * a page (via a page_mapping) and for wrapping bio submission
+ * for backward compatibility reasons (e.g. submit_bh).
