v1: - Drop the RFC tag.
    - Update to use bio_segments accordingly as __bio_segments is removed.
    - Remove if (!bio) since bio_clone_fast with bioset and GFP_NOFS will
      never fail.

This attempts to use bio_clone_fast() in the places where we clone bio,
such as when bio got cloned for multiple disks and when bio got split
during dio submit.

One benefit is to simplify dio submit to avoid calling bio_add_page one by
one.

Another benefit is that comparing to bio_clone_bioset, bio_clone_fast is
faster because of copying the vector pointer directly, and bio_clone_fast
doesn't modify bi_vcnt, so the extra work is to fix up bi_vcnt usage we
currently have to use bi_iter to iterate bvec.

Here are some numbers collected with the script [1], note that most of
performance tests usually issue bs=4k dio write/read so our directIO split code
is not tested as it requires bs > stripe_len(64K), thus I made this simple
script which writes 2G with bs=128K.

- vanilla:
real    0m10.265s
user    0m0.005s
sys     0m9.164s

- patched:
real    0m8.973s
user    0m0.006s
sys     0m7.804s
