This reverts commit 2fd3e5efe791946be0957c8e1eed9560b541fe46.

The above commit replaces page_address(bv->bv_page) by bvec_virt(bv) to
avoid directly access to bv->bv_page, but in situation bv->bv_offset is
not zero and page_address(bv->bv_page) is not equal to bvec_virt(bv). In
such case a memory corruption may happen because memory in next page is
tainted by following line in do_btree_node_write(),
	memcpy(bvec_virt(bv), addr, PAGE_SIZE);

This patch reverts the mentioned commit to avoid the memory corruption.
