The function bio_trim has offset and size arguments that are declared
as int.

The callers of this function uses sector_t type when passing the offset
and size e,g. drivers/md/raid1.c:narrow_write_error() and
drivers/md/raid1.c:narrow_write_error().

Change offset & size arguments to sector_t type for bio_trim().

sectort_t seems to be the right one, there are << 9 in the function so
that could lead to some bugs if the offset and size are at the boundary.
Need to add an overflow check:

size <<= 9;
...
bio->bi_iter.bi_size = size;

bi_size is "unsigned int" so if "size << 9" is larger than UINT_MAX, things will
break in ugly ways. And since trim is a hint to the device, in case of overflow,
the BIO size should probably simply be set to 0, with a WARN_ON signaling it.

Note that the potential overflow already exists with the current code as the BIO
size can be less than requested or 0 if size <<9 overflows the int type...

You may want to keep the extern for consistency in that file, though
it's not necessary for the prototype.

The patch is simple I can take it through the btrfs tree with the other
fixes unless there are objections.
