5f7136db82 block: Add bio_max_segs
It's often inconvenient to use BIO_MAX_PAGES due to min() requiring the
sign to be the same.  Introduce bio_max_segs() and change BIO_MAX_PAGES to
be unsigned to make it easier for the users.

488ca3d8d0 xfs: chain bios the right way around in xfs_rw_bdev
We need to chain the earlier bios to the later ones, so that
submit_bio_wait waits on the bio that all the completions are
dispatched to.

6ad5b3255b xfs: use bios directly to read and write the log recovery buffers
The xfs_buf structure is basically used as a glorified container for
a memory allocation in the log recovery code.  Replace it with a
call to kmem_alloc_large and a simple abstraction to read into or
write from it synchronously using chained bios.
