block: move the padding adjustment to blk_rq_map_sg
blk_rq_map_user adjusts bi_size of the last bio. It breaks the rule that req->data_len (the true data length) is equal to sum(bio). It broke the scsi command completion code. commit e97a294ef6938512b655b1abf17656cf2b26f709 was introduced to fix the above issue. However, the partial completion code doesn't work with it. The commit is also a layer violation (scsi mid-layer should not know about the block layer's padding). This patch moves the padding adjustment to blk_rq_map_sg (suggested by James). The padding works like the drain buffer. This patch breaks the rule that req->data_len is equal to sum(sg), however, the drain buffer already broke it. So this patch just restores the rule that req->data_len is equal to sub(bio) without breaking anything new. Now when a low level driver needs padding, blk_rq_map_user and blk_rq_map_user_iov guarantee there's enough room for padding. blk_rq_map_sg can safely extend the last entry of a scatter list. blk_rq_map_sg must extend the last entry of a scatter list only for a request that got through bio_copy_user_iov. This patches introduces new REQ_COPY_USER flag.
