bvec->bv_offset may be bigger than PAGE_SIZE sometimes, such as,
when one bio is splitted in the middle of one bvec via bio_split(),
and bi_iter.bi_bvec_done is used to build offset of the 1st bvec of
remained bio. And the remained bio's bvec may be re-submitted to fs
layer via ITER_IBVEC, such as loop and nvme-loop.
So we have to make sure that every bvec's offset is less than
PAGE_SIZE from bio_for_each_segment_all() because some drivers(loop,
nvme-loop) passes the splitted bvec to fs layer via ITER_BVEC.
This patch fixes this issue reported by Zhang Yi When running nvme/011.

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.
