From: Keith Busch <kbusch@xxxxxxxxxx>
The user can set the max_sectors limit to any valid value via sysfs
/sys/block/<dev>/queue/max_sectors_kb attribute. If the device limits
are ever rescanned, though, the limit reverts back to the potentially
artificially low BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS value.
Preserve the user's setting as the max_sectors limit as long as it's
valid. The user can reset back to defaults by writing 0 to the sysfs
file.
