NVMe: Split non-mergeable bio requests It is possible a bio request can not be submitted as a single NVMe IO command if the bio_vec is not mergeable with the NVMe PRP alignement constraints. This condition was handled by submitting an IO for the mergeable portion then submitting a follow on IO for the remaining data after the previous IO completes. The remainder to be sent was tracked by manipulating the bio->bi_idx and bio->bi_sector. This patch splits the request as many times as necessary and submits the bios together. Since submitting the bio may cause it to be requeued on split, nvme_resubmit_bios had to be modified to remove the wait queue when the bio list is empty prior to submitting the bio since a split would have added the wait queue a second time, corrupting the wait queue head task list. There are a few other benefits from doing this: it fixes a potential issue with the previous handling of a non-mergeable bio as the requeuing method could would use an unlocked nvme_queue if the callback isn't invoked on the queue's associated cpu; it will be possible to retry a failed bio if desired at some later time since it does not manipulate the original bio; the bio integrity extensions require the bio to be in its original condition for the checks to work correctly if we implement the end-to-end data protection in the future.
