Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] usb-storage: always set hw_max_sectors in slave_configure to avoid inappropriate clamping
Date: Wed,  2 Sep 2020 08:09:37 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200902000937.2204-2-tom.ty89@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200902000937.2204-1-tom.ty89@gmail.com>

When the scsi request queue is initialized/allocated, the scsi driver clamps
hw_max_sectors against the dma max mapping size of sdev->host->dma_dev. The
device is currently inappriorate to use for USB drives.

Therefore, always (re)set hw_max_sectors in the usb drivers to invalidate the
clamping.
