[PATCH V6 06/30] block: use bio_for_each_chunk() to compute multipage bvec count

From: Ming Lei
Date: Sat Jun 09 2018 - 08:31:57 EST


Firstly it is more efficient to use bio_for_each_chunk() in both
blk_bio_segment_split() and __blk_recalc_rq_segments() to compute how many
multipage bvecs there are in the bio.

Secondaly once bio_for_each_chunk() is used, the bvec may need to
be splitted because its length can be very longer than max segment size,
so we have to split the big bvec into several segments.

Thirdly during splitting multipage bvec into segments, max segment number
may be reached, then the bio need to be splitted when this happens.
