There are two mistakes for building bvec from sg list for file
backed ns:
- use request data length to compute number of io vector, this way
doesn't consider sg->offset, and the result may be smaller than required
io vectors
- bvec->bv_len isn't capped by sg->length
This patch fixes this issue by building bvec from sg directly, given
the whole IO stack is ready for multi-page bvec.

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 Restructured Text 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.
