block: Fix WARNING in _copy_from_iter

Syzkaller reports a warning in _copy_from_iter because an
iov_iter is supposedly used in the wrong direction. The reason
is that syzcaller managed to generate a request with
a transfer direction of SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV. This instructs
the kernel to copy user buffers into the kernel, read into
the copied buffers and then copy the data back to user space.

Thus the iovec is used in both directions.

Detect this situation in the block layer and construct a new
iterator with the correct direction for the copy-in.

block: convert bio_map_user_iov to use iov_iter_extract_pages

This will pin pages or leave them unaltered rather than getting a ref on

The pages need to be pinned for DIO rather than having refs taken on them
to prevent VM copy-on-write from malfunctioning during a concurrent fork()
(the result of the I/O could otherwise end up being visible to/affected by
the child process).

block: fix bio-cache for passthru IO

commit <8af870aa5b847> ("block: enable bio caching use for passthru IO")
introduced bio-cache for passthru IO. In case when nr_vecs are greater
than BIO_INLINE_VECS, bio and bvecs are allocated from mempool (instead
of percpu cache) and REQ_ALLOC_CACHE is cleared. This causes the side
effect of not freeing bio/bvecs into mempool on completion.

This patch lets the passthru IO fallback to allocation using bio_kmalloc
when nr_vecs are greater than BIO_INLINE_VECS. The corresponding bio
is freed during call to blk_mq_map_bio_put during completion.
