[PATCH v2 4/4] dm: use bioset_create_nobvec()

[Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>]

From: Junichi Nomura <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com>

Since DM core uses bio_clone_fast() for both bio-based and request-based
DM devices there is no need for DM's bioset to have a bvec mempool.

With this patch, on arch with 4KB page for example, memory usage will be
reduced by 64KB for each bio-based DM device and 1MB for each
request-based DM device.

For example, when you create 10,000 bio-based DM devices and 1,000
request-based DM devices, memory usage of biovec under no load is:
  # grep biovec /proc/slabinfo

  biovec-256        418068 418068   4096  ...
  biovec-128             0      0   2048  ...
  biovec-64              0      0   1024  ...
  biovec-16              0      0    256  ...

With this patch series applied, the usage becomes:
  # grep biovec /proc/slabinfo

  biovec-256           116    116   4096  ...
  biovec-128             0      0   2048  ...
  biovec-64              0      0   1024  ...
  biovec-16              0      0    256  ...

So 4096 * (418068 - 116) = 1.6GB of memory is saved in this example.
