DMA start address and transfer size alignment for PC requests are achieved using bio_copy_user() instead of bio_map_user(). This works because bio_copy_user() always uses full pages and block DMA alignment isn't allowed to go over PAGE_SIZE. However, the implementation didn't update the last bio of the request to make this padding visible to lower layers. This patch makes blk_rq_map_user() extend the last bio such that it includes the padding area and the size of area pointed to by the request is properly aligned.
