block: update bio according to DMA alignment padding

DMA start address and transfer size alignment for PC requests are
achieved using bio_copy_user() instead of bio_map_user().  This works
because bio_copy_user() always uses full pages and block DMA alignment
isn't allowed to go over PAGE_SIZE.

However, the implementation didn't update the last bio of the request
to make this padding visible to lower layers.  This patch makes
blk_rq_map_user() extend the last bio such that it includes the
padding area and the size of area pointed to by the request is
properly aligned.
