Yoshihiro Shimoda d74ffae8b8 usb-storage: Add a limitation for blk_queue_max_hw_sectors()
This patch fixes an issue that the following error happens on
swiotlb environment:

	xhci-hcd ee000000.usb: swiotlb buffer is full (sz: 524288 bytes), total 32768 (slots), used 1338 (slots)

On the kernel v5.1, block settings of a usb-storage with SuperSpeed
were the following so that the block layer will allocate buffers
up to 64 KiB, and then the issue didn't happen.

	max_segment_size = 65536
	max_hw_sectors_kb = 1024

After the commit 09324d32d2 ("block: force an unlimited segment
size on queues with a virt boundary") is applied, the block settings
are the following. So, the block layer will allocate buffers up to
1024 KiB, and then the issue happens:

	max_segment_size = 4294967295
	max_hw_sectors_kb = 1024

To fix the issue, the usb-storage driver checks the maximum size of
a mapping for the device and then adjusts the max_hw_sectors_kb
if required. After this patch is applied, the block settings will
be the following, and then the issue doesn't happen.

	max_segment_size = 4294967295
	max_hw_sectors_kb = 256

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 Restructured Text 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.
