Now, the issue is quite obvious, and page size is 64K on your platform,
but max_sectors is set as 64 by commit ca369d51b3e164, and I think
it is wrong to set max sectors from OPTIMAL TRANSFER LENGTH.

Also it is ugly to set limits->max_sectors from drivers directly, and drivers
should have called block helpers to do that.

Thanks for your test, and the above log is absolutely enough, :-)
