Martin reported an issue that directory read could be hung on the
latest -rc kernel with some certain image. The root cause is that
commit baa2c7c971 ("block: set .bi_max_vecs as actual allocated
vector number") changes .bi_max_vecs behavior. bio->bi_max_vecs
is set as actual allocated vector number rather than the requested
number now.
Let's avoid using .bi_max_vecs completely instead.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
