block: reduce stack footprint of blk_recount_segments()

blk_recalc_rq_segments() requires a request structure passed in, which
we don't have from blk_recount_segments(). So the latter allocates one on
the stack, using > 400 bytes of stack for that. This can cause us to spill
over one page of stack from ext4 at least:

Split the segment counting out into a __blk_recalc_rq_segments() helper
to avoid allocating an onstack request just for checking the physical
segment count.
