Subject: [PATCH 4.4 70/74] block: get the 1st and last bvec via helpers

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ming Lei <ming.lei@...onical.com>

commit 25e71a99f10e444cd00bb2ebccb11e1c9fb672b1 upstream.

This patch applies the two introduced helpers to
figure out the 1st and last bvec, and fixes the
original way after bio splitting.
