drbd: fix access of unallocated pages and kernel panic

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)
...
 [<d1e17561>] ? _drbd_bm_set_bits+0x151/0x240 [drbd]
 [<d1e236f8>] ? receive_bitmap+0x4f8/0xbc0 [drbd]

This fixes an off-by-one error in the receive_bitmap() path,
if run-length encoded bitmap transfer is enabled.

If the bitmap is an exact multiple of PAGE_SIZE, which means the visible
capacity of the drbd device is an exact multiple of 128 MiB (for 4k page
size), and bitmap compression (use-rle) is enabled (which became default
with 8.4), and the very last bit is dirty and reported in an rle
comressed bitmap packet, we ended up trying to kmap_atomic a page pointer
that does not exist (bitmap->bm_pages[last index + 1]).

    drbd: get rid of unused debug code

    Long time ago, we had paranoia code in the bitmap that allocated one
    extra word, assigned a magic value, and checked on every occasion that
    the magic value was still unchanged.

    That debug code is unused, the extra long word complicates code a bit.
    Get rid of it.

No-one triggered this bug in the last few years, because a large subset
of our userbase is unaffected:
 * typically the last few blocks of a device are not modified
   frequently, and remain unset
 * use-rle was disabled by default in drbd < 8.4
 * those with slightly "odd" device sizes, or
 * drbd internal meta data (which will skew the device size slightly,
   thus makes it harder to have a bug relevant device size)
