Subject: [PATCH v2]block:bounce: fix call inc_|dec_zone_page_state on
 different pages confuse value of NR_BOUNCE

Commit d2c5e30c9a1420902262aa923794d2ae4e0bc391
("[PATCH] zoned vm counters: conversion of nr_bounce to per zone counter")
convert statistic of nr_bounce to per zone and one global value in vm_stat,
but it call inc_|dec_zone_page_state on different pages, then different
zones, and cause us to get unexpected value of NR_BOUNCE.

Below is the result on my machine:

You can see bounce:75771152kB for HighMem, but bounce:0 for lowmem and global.

This patch fix it.
