When the user increased the read-ahead size through sysfs this value
currently get lost if the device is reprobe, including on a resume
from suspend.
As there is no hardware limitation for the read-ahead size there is
no real need to reset it or track a separate hardware limitation
like for max_sectors.
This restores the pre-atomic queue limit behavior in the sd driver as
sd did not use blk_queue_io_opt and thus never updated the read ahead
size to the value based of the optimal I/O, but changes behavior for
all other drivers. As the new behavior seems useful and sd is the
driver for which the readahead size tweaks are most useful that seems
like a worthwhile trade off.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
