e5b43573 caused a regression in the preparation of our IO vectors, such
that if a small granularity but a large buffer size is chosen, we may
accidentally exceed MAX_IOV and the request will fail.

This has been fixed before in cae98cb8, and now we'll fix it again.
To keep it fixed, we'll add an iotest this time.

[Thanks to Max for finding the root cause.]
