pre-calculating number of regions in the strip unit is ideal for
random write, but it impose overhead on the most common sequential
write (that's why I don't allocate CEPH_OSD_MAX_OP ops in the first
place)  Besides,  pre-calculating number of regions require big
modification on both ceph_writepages_start() and
ceph_osdc_new_request()  (we don't know where a strip unit end until
calling ceph_osdc_new_request()).
