When block layer fails to map iov, it calls bio_unmap_user to undo
mapping.  Which is good if pages were mapped - but if they were provided
by someone else and just copied then bad things happen - pages are
released once here, and once by caller, leading to user triggerable BUG
at include/linux/mm.h:246.
