Commit 16d80c54ad42 ("rbd: set io_min, io_opt and discard_granularity to alloc_size") lowered the io_opt size for rbd from objset_bytes which is 4MB for typical setup to alloc_size which is typically 64KB. The commit mostly talks about discard behavior and does mention io_min in passing. Reducing io_opt means reducing the readahead size, which seems counter-intuitive given that rbd currently abuses the user max_sectors setting to actually increase the I/O size. Switch back to the old setting to allow larger reads (the readahead size despite it's name actually limits the size of any buffered read) and to prepare for using io_opt in the max_sectors calculation and getting drivers out of the business of overriding the max_user_sectors value.
