This is still a very odd check.  bi_max_vecs * PAGE_SIZE is rather
arbitrary… and more importantly bi_max_vecs is not really a public
field, in fact this is the only place every using it outside the
core block layer.

I think the logic in this function should be reworked to what we
do elsewhere in the kernel, that is just add to the bio until
bio_add_page fails, in which case you submit the bio and start
a new one.  Then once you are done with your operation just submit
the bio.  Which unless I'm missing something is what the code does,
except for the goto loop obsfucation that is trying to hide it.

So why not something like:
