[PATCH] bio: decrease bi_iter.bi_size by len in the fail path

Commit 3979ef4dcf3d1de55a560a3a4016c30a835df44d ("bio-modify-
__bio_add_page-to-accept-pages-that-dont-start-a-new-segment-v3")
introduced a regression as reported by Jet Chen.
That results in a kernel BUG at drivers/block/virtio_blk.c:166.

To fix that, bi_iter.bi_size must be decreased by len, before
recounting the number of physical segments.

Tested on with kernel 3.15.0-rc7-next-20140527 on qemu guest,
by running xfstests/ext4/271.
