We do know that Microsoft Windows at least used to have a 64Kb limit, and that that limit is "safe" in the sense that all hw was tested/designed for that. So setting the default safe, and overriding it per driver sounds best. It only really matters for a handful of drivers anyway, and those either already set something or ought to. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
