Instead, we test the global "buffersize" I'm not sure what's going on there, need to read the code bit more. That's probably a separate fix though.

The buffer_size argument in do_pwritev/do_preadv is useless. I'll remove it in a separate patch. But due to this patch changed the 'buffer_size' place, I'll send this patch and 'remove buffer_size' patch together. To prevent merge conflict.
