btrfs: look at full bi_io_vec for repair decision



Read repair does two things: it finds a good copy of data to return to
the reader, and it corrects the bad copy on disk. If a read of multiple
sectors has an I/O error, repair does an extra "validation" step that
issues a separate read for each sector. This allows us to find the exact
failing sectors and only rewrite those.

This heuristic is implemented in
bio_readpage_error()/btrfs_check_repairable() as:

	failed_bio_pages = failed_bio->bi_iter.bi_size >> PAGE_SHIFT;
	if (failed_bio_pages > 1)
		do validation

However, at this point, bi_iter may have already been advanced. This
means that we'll skip the validation step and rewrite the entire failed
read.

Fix it by getting the actual size from the biovec (which we can do
because this is only called for non-cloned bios, although that will
change in a later commit).
