If we pass in an offset which is larger than PAGE_SIZE, then
page_is_mergeable() thinks it's not mergeable with the previous bio_vec,
leading to a large number of bio_vecs being used. Use a slightly more
obvious test that the two pages are compatible with each other.
Fixes: 52d52d1c98 ("block: only allow contiguous page structs in a bio_vec")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
