Which in turn makes me think of applying the same idea
to max_sectors

        shost->max_sectors = MAX_512B_SECTORS_UNLIMITED;

which would be the default unless the HBA (RAID controller
or whatever) really does have a (practical) limit. If a
device beyond the target has a limit, then that is not the
LLD's concern.
