It is enough to check and compute bio->bi_seg_front_size just
after the 1st segment is found, but current code checks that
for each bvec, which is inefficient.

This patch follows the way in  __blk_recalc_rq_segments()
for computing bio->bi_seg_front_size, and it is more efficient
and code becomes more readable too.

Gentle ping, :-)

IMO, it is nice to follow the logic in __blk_recalc_rq_segments(),
so hope this one can be merged in for-next soon.

Thanks,
Ming
