[050/107] block: check for proper length of iov entries earlier in blk_rq_map_user_iov()

From: Greg KH

2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Xiaotian Feng <dfeng@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5478755616ae2ef1ce144dded589b62b2a50d575 upstream.

commit 9284bcf checks for proper length of iov entries in
blk_rq_map_user_iov(). But if the map is unaligned, kernel
will break out the loop without checking for the proper length.
So we need to check the proper length before the unalign check.
