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

upstream commit: 303a0e11d0ee136ad8f53f747f3c377daece763b

Since commit d3f761104b097738932afcc310fbbbbfb007ef92
newly allocated bvecs aren't initialised to NULL, so we have
to be more careful about freeing a bio which only managed
to get a few pages allocated to it. Otherwise the resync
process crashes.

This patch is appropriate for 2.6.29-stable.
