H A Dlops.caa83da7f Mon Apr 27 18:15:41 CDT 2020 Andreas Gruenbacher <agruenba@redhat.com> gfs2: More gfs2_find_jhead fixes

It turns out that when extending an existing bio, gfs2_find_jhead fails to
check if the block number is consecutive, which leads to incorrect reads for
fragmented journals.

In addition, limit the maximum bio size to an arbitrary value of 2 megabytes:
since commit 07173c3ec276 ("block: enable multipage bvecs"), if we just keep
adding pages until bio_add_page fails, bios will grow much larger than useful,
which pins more memory than necessary with barely any additional performance
gains.

Fixes: f4686c26ecc3 ("gfs2: read journal in large chunks")
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v5.2+
