dm: preserve bi_io_vec when resubmitting bios
Device mapper saves and restores various fields in the bio, but it doesn't save bi_io_vec. If the device driver modifies this after a partially successful request, dm-raid1 and dm-multipath may attempt to resubmit a bio that has bi_size inconsistent with the size of vector. To make requests resubmittable in dm-raid1 and dm-multipath, we must save and restore the bio vector as well. To reduce the memory overhead involved in this, we do not save the pages in a vector and use a 16-bit field size if the page size is less than 65536.
