This had the unfortunate effect of also limiting the maximum size of non-filesystem requests sent to the device through sg/bsg. Avoid using blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() and set the max_sectors queue limit directly. Also update the comment in blk_limits_max_hw_sectors() to clarify that max_hw_sectors defines the limit for the I/O controller only. Signed-off-by: Martin K.
