This patch gets the minimum of max_sectors from > physical paths and sets it to dm device. There shouldn't be any need for additional DM overrides for max_sectors. DM will stack the limits for all underlying devices each table reload (via dm_calculate_queue_limits). And max_sectors is properly stacked in the block layer's bdev_stack_limits (called by dm_set_device_limits). So is something resetting max_sectors with sysfs? multipathd?
