Jens Axboe 1e42807918 block: reduce stack footprint of blk_recount_segments()
blk_recalc_rq_segments() requires a request structure passed in, which
we don't have from blk_recount_segments(). So the latter allocates one on
the stack, using > 400 bytes of stack for that. This can cause us to spill
over one page of stack from ext4 at least:

 0)     4560     400   blk_recount_segments+0x43/0x62

Split the segment counting out into a __blk_recalc_rq_segments() helper
to avoid allocating an onstack request just for checking the physical
segment count.
