Subject: block: Fix for_each_bvec()

From: "Martin K. Petersen" <[email protected]>

commit b7aa84d9cb9f26da1a9312c3e39dbd1a3c25a426 upstream.

Commit 4550dd6c6b062 introduced for_each_bvec() which iterates over each
bvec attached to a bio or bip. However, the macro fails to check bi_size
before dereferencing which can lead to crashes while counting/mapping
integrity scatterlist segments.
