block: make sure a big bio is split into at most 256 bvecs
After arbitrary bio size was introduced, the incoming bio may be very big. We have to split the bio into small bios so that each holds at most BIO_MAX_PAGES bvecs for safety reason, such as bio_clone(). This patch fixes the following kernel crash: > [ 172.660142] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000028 > [ 172.660229] IP: [<ffffffff811e53b4>] bio_trim+0xf/0x2a > [ 172.660289] PGD 7faf3e067 PUD 7f9279067 PMD 0 > [ 172.660399] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP > [...] > [ 172.664780] Call Trace: > [ 172.664813] [<ffffffffa007f3be>] ? raid1_make_request+0x2e8/0xad7 [raid1] > [ 172.664846] [<ffffffff811f07da>] ? blk_queue_split+0x377/0x3d4 > [ 172.664880] [<ffffffffa005fb5f>] ? md_make_request+0xf6/0x1e9 [md_mod] > [ 172.664912] [<ffffffff811eb860>] ? generic_make_request+0xb5/0x155 > [ 172.664947] [<ffffffffa0445c89>] ? prio_io+0x85/0x95 [bcache] > [ 172.664981] [<ffffffffa0448252>] ? register_cache_set+0x355/0x...
