I missed the fact that ATA_HORKAGE_MAX_SEC_LBA48 is only (and should
only be) used by a few ATAPI devices, and the SCSI cdrom devices will
not touch max_sectors like the SCSI disk driver. Therefore, I guess I
should really just use blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() to set both
max_hw_sectors and max_sectors for ATAPI devices. Sending a v2.
