I would much prefer just doing

	if (!bs) {
		/* do kmalloc/kfree thing */
	} else {
		/* do bioset thing */
	}

NULL @bs indicating no bioset is perfectly natural and so is using
generic memory allocation in the absense of bioset.  I don't see any
value in defining Bio_KMALLOC_POOL to be NULL.

Thanks.
