Parent article: Driver porting: the BIO structure

Is the following statement outdated?

    When the operation is complete, the driver must inform the block subsystem of that fact. That is done with bio_endio()

Over on http://lwn.net/Articles/27055/ you say

    Note that drivers should not call bio_endio() as transfers complete; the block layer will take care of that.
