drbd: fix potential data corruption and protocol error
We assumed only bios with bi_idx == 0 would end up
in drbd_make_request().
That is wrong.
At least device mapper, in __clone_and_map(), may submit
clones only covering a partial bio, but sharing
the original bvec, by adjusting bi_idx and relevant
other bio members of the clone.
We used __bio_for_each_segment() in various places,
even though that is documented as
* drivers should not use the __ version unless they _really_ want to
* run through the entire bio and not just pending pieces
Impact: we would send the full bio bvec, even for the clone
with bi_idx > 0, which will cause data corruption on the
peer (because we submit wrong data at the clone offset),
and will cause a DRBD protocol error, disconnect/reconnect
and resync (thus fixing the corruption),
because the next package header would be expected right
in the middle of the sent data, causing DRBD magic mismatch.
Fix: drop the assert, and use bio_for_each_segment()
instead of the __ version.
