I'm not seeing any warnings.  My .config has:
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY is not set

The bio.h block is:

#if defined(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY)
...
#else /* CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY */
#define bio_integrity_clone(a, b, c, d)       (0)
#endif

So I'm not seeing why your proposed change matters.  Should already
behave properly (and in practice I'm not seeing any problems).
