When the IO size is larger than 2 pages, we move the the pointer one by
one in the pagelist, this is inefficient.
This is a simple benchmark result:
Before:
$ qemu-io -c 'write 0 1G' nvme://0000:00:04.0/1
wrote 1073741824/1073741824 bytes at offset 0
1 GiB, 1 ops; 0:00:02.41 (424.504 MiB/sec and 0.4146 ops/sec)
$ qemu-io -c 'read 0 1G' nvme://0000:00:04.0/1
read 1073741824/1073741824 bytes at offset 0
1 GiB, 1 ops; 0:00:02.03 (503.055 MiB/sec and 0.4913 ops/sec)
After:
$ qemu-io -c 'write 0 1G' nvme://0000:00:04.0/1
wrote 1073741824/1073741824 bytes at offset 0
1 GiB, 1 ops; 0:00:02.17 (471.517 MiB/sec and 0.4605 ops/sec)
$ qemu-io -c 'read 0 1G' nvme://0000:00:04.0/1
read 1073741824/1073741824 bytes at offset 0
1 GiB, 1 ops; 0:00:01.94 (526.770 MiB/sec and 0.5144 ops/sec)
