Mikulas Patocka 97f433c360 blk-settings: align max_sectors on "logical_block_size" boundary
We get I/O errors when we run md-raid1 on the top of dm-integrity on the
top of ramdisk.
device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0xff00, 0xff
device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0xff00, 0xff
device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0xffff, 0x1
device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0xffff, 0x1
device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0x8048, 0xff
device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0x8147, 0xff
device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0x8246, 0xff
device-mapper: integrity: Bio not aligned on 8 sectors: 0x8345, 0xbb

The ramdisk device has logical_block_size 512 and max_sectors 255. The
dm-integrity device uses logical_block_size 4096 and it doesn't affect the
"max_sectors" value - thus, it inherits 255 from the ramdisk. So, we have
a device with max_sectors not aligned on logical_block_size.

The md-raid device sees that the underlying leg has max_sectors 255 and it
will split the bios on 255-sector boundary, making the bios unaligned on
logical_block_size.

In order to fix the bug, we round down max_sectors to logical_block_size.

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.
