Add support for segments smaller than the page size.

This patch enables testing segments smaller than the page size with a
driver that does not call blk_rq_map_sg().

Bart, if you can send a blktest for this it will be great.

Hi Chaitanya,

This patch has been resent as patch 7/7 of the following series: "[PATCH v4 0/7] Add support for limits below the page size" (https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20230130212656.876311-1-bvanassche@xxxxxxx/T/#t).

blktests for that patch series are available here: https://github.com/bvanassche/blktests/commits/master. Do you prefer that I send a pull request for these blktests now or do you perhaps prefer that I wait until the kernel patch series has been merged?

Thanks,

Bart.
