Hope thjis isn't too much bike-shedding, but in the block layer
we generally used _segment for the single page bvecs and just bvec
for the not page size limited.  This isn't the best naming either,
but i wonder if it's worth to change the existing 4 callers and be
consistent.  (and maybe one or two of them doesn't want the limit anyway?)

Otherwise this looks good to me.
