bio_iov_iter_get_pages() trims the IO based on the block size of the block device the IO will be issued to. However, bcachefs is a multi device filesystem; when we're creating the bio we don't yet know which block device the bio will be submitted to - we have to handle the alignment checks elsewhere. Thus this is needed to avoid a null ptr deref.
