Subject: libata: Set max sector to 65535 for Slimtype DVD A DS8A8SH drive
From: Shan Hai <shan.hai@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit a32450e127fc6e5ca6d958ceb3cfea4d30a00846 upstream.
The Slimtype DVD A DS8A8SH drive locks up when max sector is smaller than
65535, and the blow backtrace is observed on locking up:
INFO: task flush-8:32:1130 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

The above trace was triggered by
"dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sr0 bs=2048 count=32768"
It was previously working by accident, since another bug introduced
by 4dce8ba94c7 (libata: Use 'bool' return value for ata_id_XXX) caused
all drives to use maxsect=65535.
