loop: handle short DIO reads We ran into an issue with loop and btrfs, where btrfs would complain about checksum errors. It turns out that is because we don't handle short reads at all, we just zero fill the remainder. Worse than that, we don't handle the filling properly, which results in loop trying to advance a single bio by much more than its size, since it doesn't take chaining into account. Handle short reads appropriately, by simply retrying at the new correct offset. End the remainder of the request with EIO, if we get a 0 read.
