Now that we've got a mechanism for immutable biovecs -
bi_iter.bi_bvec_done - we need to convert drivers to use primitives that
respect it instead of using the bvec array directly.

Replace the arbitrary calculation of an initial io struct mempool size
with a constant.
The code calculated the number of reserved structures based on the request
size and used a "magic" multiplication constant of 4. This patch changes
it to reserve a fixed number - itself still chosen quite arbitrarily.
Further testing might show if there is a better number to choose.
Note that if there is no memory pressure, we can still allocate an
arbitrary number of "struct io" structures. One structure is enough to
process the whole request.

Eliminate a 4-byte hole in 'struct dm_io_memory' by moving 'offset' above the
'ptr' to which it applies (size reduced from 24 to 16 bytes). And by
association, 1-4 byte hole is eliminated in 'struct dm_io_request' (size
reduced from 56 to 48 bytes).
Eliminate all 6 4-byte holes and 1 cache-line in 'struct dm_snapshot' (size
reduced from 392 to 368 bytes).
