dm: fix BLK_STS_DM_REQUEUE handling when dm_io represents split bio
Commit 7dd76d1 ("dm: improve bio splitting and associated IO
accounting") removed using cloned bio when dm io splitting is needed.
Using bio_trim()+bio_inc_remaining() rather than bio_split()+bio_chain()
causes multiple dm_io instances to share the same original bio, and it
works fine if IOs are completed successfully.
But a regression was caused for the case when BLK_STS_DM_REQUEUE is
returned from any one of DM's cloned bios (whose dm_io share the same
orig_bio). In this BLK_STS_DM_REQUEUE case only the mapped subset of
the original bio for the current exact dm_io needs to be re-submitted.
However, since the original bio is shared among all dm_io instances,
the ->orig_bio actually only represents the last dm_io instance, so
requeue can't work as expected. Also when more than one dm_io is
requeued, the same original bio is requeued from all dm_io's
completion handler, then race is caused.
Fix this issue by still allocating one clone bio for completing io
only, then io accounting can rely on ->orig_bio being unmodified. This
is needed because the dm_io's sector_offset and sectors members are
recorded relative to an unmodified ->orig_bio.
In the future, we can go back to using bio_trim()+bio_inc_remaining()
for dm's io splitting but then delay needing a bio clone only when
handling BLK_STS_DM_REQUEUE, but that approach is a bit complicated
(so it needs a development cycle):
1) bio clone needs to be done in task context
2) a block interface for unwinding bio is required
