commit 120c9257f5f19e5d1e87efcbb5531b7cd81b7d74 upstream.

This reverts commit effd58c95f277744f75d6e08819ac859dbcbd351.

blk_queue_split() is causing excessive IO splitting -- because
blk_max_size_offset() depends on 'chunk_sectors' limit being set and
if it isn't (as is the case for DM targets!) it falls back to
splitting on a 'max_sectors' boundary regardless of offset.

"Fix" this by reverting back to _not_ using blk_queue_split() in
dm_process_bio() for normal IO (reads and writes).  Long-term fix is
still TBD but it should focus on training blk_max_size_offset() to
call into a DM provided hook (to call DM's max_io_len()).

Test results from simple misaligned IO test on 4-way dm-striped device
with chunksize of 128K and stripesize of 512K:

xfs_io -d -c 'pread -b 2m 224s 4072s' /dev/mapper/stripe_dev
