Instead of overloading the passthrough fast path with the deprecated
block layer bounce buffering let the users that combine an old
undermaintained driver with a highmem system pay the price by always
falling back to copies in that case.

Get rid of all the PFN arithmetics and just use an enum for the two
remaining options, and use PageHighMem for the actual bounce decision.

Add a fast path to entirely avoid the call for the common case of a queue
not using the legacy bouncing code.

The caller can't cope with a failure from bounce_clone_bio, so
use __GFP_NOFAIL for the passthrough case.  bio_alloc_bioset already
won't fail due to the use of mempools.

And yes, we need to get rid of this bock layer bouncing code entirely
sooner or later..

Now that bio_alloc_bioset does not fall back to kmalloc for a NULL
bio_set, handle that case explicitly and simplify the calling
conventions.

Based on an earlier patch from Chaitanya Kulkarni.

Cloned bios are can be used to on the same device, in which case we need
to inherit the BIO_REMAPPED flag to avoid a double partition remap.  When
the cloned bios are used on another device, bio_set_dev will clear the flag.

Replace the gendisk pointer in struct bio with a pointer to the newly
improved struct block device.  From that the gendisk can be trivially
accessed with an extra indirection, but it also allows to directly
look up all information related to partition remapping.
