block: use bvec iterator helper for bio_may_need_split()
bio_may_need_split() uses bi_vcnt to determine if a bio has a single
segment, but bi_vcnt is unreliable for cloned bios. Cloned bios share
the parent's bi_io_vec array but iterate over a subset via bi_iter,
so bi_vcnt may not reflect the actual segment count being iterated.
Replace the bi_vcnt check with bvec iterator access via
__bvec_iter_bvec(), comparing bi_iter.bi_size against the current
bvec's length. This correctly handles both cloned and non-cloned bios.
Move bi_io_vec into the first cache line adjacent to bi_iter. This is
a sensible layout since bi_io_vec and bi_iter are commonly accessed
together throughout the block layer - every bvec iteration requires
both fields. This displaces bi_end_io to the second cache line, which
is acceptable since bi_end_io and bi_private are always fetched
together in bio_endio() anyway.
The struct layout change requires bio_reset() to preserve and restore
bi_io_vec across the memset, since it now falls within BIO_RESET_BYTES.
Nitesh verified that this patch doesn't regress NVMe 512-byte IO perf [1].
