From: Keith Busch <kbusch@xxxxxxxxxx> The block limits exports the number of write hints, so set this limit if the device reports support for the lifetime hints. Not only does this inform the user of which hints are possible, it also allows scsi devices supporting the feature to utilize the full range through raw block device direct-io.
