Please either change the unit of 'size' into bytes or change its type into
sector_t.

blk_queue_chunk_sectors, blk_queue_max_discard_sectors,
blk_queue_max_write_same_sectors, blk_queue_max_write_zeroes_sectors,
blk_queue_max_zone_append_sectors also have the unit of sectors and the
argument is "unsigned int". Should blk_queue_max_copy_sectors be
different?

As far as I know using the type sector_t for variables that represent a number of sectors is a widely followed convention:

$ git grep -w sector_t | wc -l
2575

I would appreciate it if that convention would be used consistently, even if that means modifying existing code.

Thanks,

Bart.
