bio: modify __bio_add_page() to accept pages that don't start a new segment

Browse Source 
The original behaviour is to refuse to add a new page if the maximum
number of segments has been reached, regardless of the fact the page we
are going to add can be merged into the last segment or not.

Unfortunately, when the system runs under heavy memory fragmentation
conditions, a driver may try to add multiple pages to the last segment.
The original code won't accept them and EBUSY will be reported to
userspace.

This patch modifies the function so it refuses to add a page only in case
the latter starts a new segment and the maximum number of segments has
already been reached.

The bug can be easily reproduced with the st driver:

1) set CONFIG_SCSI_MPT2SAS_MAX_SGE or CONFIG_SCSI_MPT3SAS_MAX_SGE  to 16
2) modprobe st buffer_kbs=1024
3) #dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/st0 bs=1M count=10
   dd: error writing `/dev/st0': Device or resource busy
