Doing a mkfs.btrfs on a (qemu emulated) PCIe NVMe causes a kernel panic
in nvme_setup_prps() because the dma_len will drop below zero but the
length not.

A git bisect tracked the behaviour down to commit 729204ef49ec ("block:
relax check on sg gap"). Since commit 729204ef49ec a bio's offsets are not
taken into account in the decision if the bio will gap any more. Restore
the old behavior of checking bio offsets as well for the decision if a
bio will gap.
