Fix the issue with improper counting number of flying bio requests for BIO_EOPNOTSUPP error detection case. The sb_nbio must be incremented exactly the same number of times as complete() function was called (or will be called) because nilfs_segbuf_wait() will call wail_for_completion() for the number of times set to sb_nbio: do { wait_for_completion(&segbuf->sb_bio_event); } while (--segbuf->sb_nbio > 0); Two functions complete() and wait_for_completion() must be called the same number of times for the same sb_bio_event. Otherwise, wait_for_completion() will hang or leak.
