A build warning was triggered due to excessive stack usage in
sd_revalidate_disk():
drivers/scsi/sd.c: In function ‘sd_revalidate_disk.isra’:
drivers/scsi/sd.c:3824:1: warning: the frame size of 1160 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
This is caused by a large local struct queue_limits (~400B) allocated on
the stack. Replacing it with a heap allocation using kmalloc()
significantly reduces frame usage. Kernel stack is limited (~8 KB), and
allocating large structs on the stack is discouraged. As the function
already performs heap allocations (e.g. for buffer), this change fits
well.
Fixes: 804e498e04 ("sd: convert to the atomic queue limits API")

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.
