A preparation patch. It adds a simple helper which abstracts out number
of segments we're allocating for a bio from iov_iter_npages().

Preparation for what? bio_iov_vecs_to_alloc() doesn't seem to be
used outside this specific patch, so it's not clear what it's
actually needed for...

Cheers,

Dave.

Yes, it's not used, but modified in [6/6]. It's here to generilise
these bits of iomap and block dio, so we can change the behaviour in
one place.

The new helper needs a comment explaining the use case.

Otherwise looks good:
