[ Upstream commit 2ff949441802a8d076d9013c7761f63e8ae5a9bd ]
blk_rq_map_user_bvec contains a check bytes + bv->bv_len > nr_iter which
causes unnecessary failures in NVMe passthrough I/O, reproducible as
follows:
- register a 2 page, page-aligned buffer against a ring
- use that buffer to do a 1 page io_uring NVMe passthrough read
The second (i = 1) iteration of the loop in blk_rq_map_user_bvec will
then have nr_iter == 1 page, bytes == 1 page, bv->bv_len == 1 page, so
the check bytes + bv->bv_len > nr_iter will succeed, causing the I/O to
fail. This failure is unnecessary, as when the check succeeds, it means
we've checked the entire buffer that will be used by the request - i.e.
blk_rq_map_user_bvec should complete successfully. Therefore, terminate
the loop early and return successfully when the check bytes + bv->bv_len
> nr_iter succeeds.
While we're at it, also remove the check that all segments in the bvec
are single-page. While this seems to be true for all users of the
function, it doesn't appear to be required anywhere downstream.

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.
