Strictly speaking, no. But it has the advantage of being drastically
simpler - and the only one only worked for single page bios so I
would've had to come up with something new from scratch, and as
confusing as the integrity stuff is I wouldn't trust the result.
I'm skeptical that it's going to matter in practice given how much
iteration is done elsewhere in the course of processing a bio and given
that this stuff isn't used with high end SSDs...
