patch cfd7323 introduces block bitmap prefetch, and expects to read
block bitmaps of flex_bg through an IO. However, it seems to ignore
the value range of s_log_groups_per_flex. In the scenario where the
value of s_log_groups_per_flex is greater than 27, s_mb_prefetch or
s_mb_prefetch_limit will overflow, cause a divide zero exception.
In addition, the logic of calculating nr maybe also flawed, because
the size of flexbg is fixed during a single mount, but s_mb_prefetch
can be modified, which causes nr to fail to meet the value condition
of [1, flexbg_size].

To solve this problem, we need to set the upper limit of s_mb_prefetch.
Since we expect to load block bitmaps of a flex_bg through an IO, we
can consider determining a reasonable upper limit among the IO limit
parameters. Comprehensive consideration, we take BLK_MAX_SEGMENT_SIZE.
This maybe a good choice to solve divide zero problem and avoiding
performance degradation.
