There have been some bugs found in case that PAGE_SIZE == 64K, and I
think it is bad to use PAGE_SIZE for validating many hw/queue limits, we might
have to fix them first.
Such as:
1) blk_validate_limits()
- failure if max_segment_size is less than 64K
- max_user_sectors
if (lim->max_user_sectors < PAGE_SIZE / SECTOR_SIZE)
return -EINVAL;
2) bio_may_need_split()
- max_segment_size may be less than 64K
Thanks,
