Can the new shift operation overflow? If so, how about using
check_shl_overflow()?

The above will limit bio_max_bytes for all stacked block devices, which
is something we do not want. I propose to set t->bio_max_bytes to
UINT_MAX in blk_stack_limits() and to let the stacked driver (e.g.
dm-crypt) decide whether or not to lower that value.

You may want to define bio_max_size() as an inline function in bio.h
such that no additional function calls are introduced in the hot path.

Thanks,
