Wouldn't it be more user-friendly if this check would be left out? Does any code
depend on max_copy_bytes being a multiple of the logical block size?

queue_copy_max_show() shows max_copy_sectors while queue_copy_max_store()
modifies max_user_copy_sectors. Is that perhaps a bug?

Two new limits are documented in Documentation/ABI/stable/sysfs-block while three
new parameters are added in struct queue_limits. Why three new limits instead of
two? Please add a comment above the new parameters that explains the role of the
new parameters.

"current testing" sounds vague. Why is this limit required? Why to cap what the
driver reports instead of using the value reported by the driver without modifying it?
Additionally, since this constant is only used in source code that occurs in the
block/ directory, please move the definition of this constant into a source or header
file in the block/ directory.
Thanks,
Bart.
