I think the name is a bit too generic, as the function is very
specific to the __bio_iov_iter_get_pages-path only releasing of
pages, and also only aligns down.  Maybe name it
bio_iov_iter_align_down or something like that?

Minor nitpicks on the loop:  it could be turned into a do { } while ()
loop, because nbytes is already checked above.  And the condition that
sets nbytes to 0 could just break out of the loo.

And as bi_size doesn't change in the loop, this should probably move
above the loop.
