block: remove bio_clone() and all references.
bio_clone() is no longer used. Only bio_clone_bioset() or bio_clone_fast(). This is for the best, as bio_clone() used fs_bio_set, and filesystems are unlikely to want to use bio_clone(). So remove bio_clone() and all references. This includes a fix to some incorrect documentation.
