For bio-based dm, it is good because clone bios do not exist during the table replacement. For request-based dm, however, (not-yet-mapped) clone bios may stay in request queue and survive during the table replacement. So freeing the old bioset could cause the oops in bio_put(). Since the size of front_pad may change only with bio-based dm, it is not necessary to replace bioset for request-based dm.
