NAK.  The maximum bio size should not depend on an obscure vm config,
please send a standalone patch increasing the size to the block list,
with a much long explanation.  Also you can't simply increase the size
of the largers pool, we'll probably need more pools instead, or maybe
even implement a similar chaining scheme as we do for struct
scatterlist.
