What about calling it bio_max_bvecs() or bio_max_segs() ? Together with renaming
BIO_MAX_PAGES to BIO_MAX_SEGS or BIO_MAX_BVECS, things would be clear on what
this is referring to. Since these days one bvec is one seg, but segment is more
struct request layer while bvec is more BIO layer, I would lean toward using
bvec for naming this one, but either way would be fine I think.

That's probably the least bad of the options for now.
