From: Olaf Kirch <olaf.kirch@oracle.com>

Get rid of first_clone in dm-crypt

This gets rid of first_clone, which is not really needed.  Apparently, cloned
bios used to share their bvec some time way in the past - this is no longer
the case.  Contrarily, this even hurts us if we try to create a clone off
first_clone after it has completed, and crypt_endio has destroyed its bvec.
