From: Alim Akhtar <alim.akhtar@xxxxxxxxxxx> max_blk_count is currently set incorrectly, and the correct value can be determined by looking at the maximum number of bytes which can be transferred and the block size. We use the maximum block size to determine the minimum number of blocks that the controller should support. It could probably do more with a smaller block size but this value should be sufficient for good performance. This improves sequential performance by 82% on write and 6% read on one particular device.
