Christoph Hellwig b35243a447 block: rework bio splitting
The current setup with bio_may_exceed_limit and __bio_split_to_limits
is a bit of a mess.

Change it so that __bio_split_to_limits does all the work and is just
a variant of bio_split_to_limits that returns nr_segs.  This is done
by inlining it and instead have the various bio_split_* helpers directly
submit the potentially split bios.

To support btrfs, the rw version has a lower level helper split out
that just returns the offset to split.  This turns out to nicely clean
up the btrfs flow as well.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
