Measurements for one particular UFS controller + UFS device show a 25%
higher read bandwidth if the maximum data buffer size is increased from
512 KiB to 1 MiB. Hence increase the maximum size of the data buffer
associated with a single request from SCSI_DEFAULT_MAX_SECTORS (1024)
* 512 bytes = 512 KiB to 1 MiB.
Notes:
- The maximum data buffer size supported by the UFSHCI specification
is 65535 * 256 KiB or about 16 GiB.
- The maximum data buffer size for READ(10) commands is 65535 logical
blocks. To transfer more than 65535 * 4096 bytes = 255 MiB with a
single SCSI command, the READ(16) command is required. Support for
READ(16) is optional in the UFS 3.1 and UFS 4.0 standards.
