Subject: [PATCH] block: use min_not_zero in blk_queue_stack_limits

zero is invalid for max_phys_segments, max_hw_segments, and
max_segment_size. It's better to use use min_not_zero instead of
min. min() works though (because the commit 0e435ac makes sure that
these values are set to the default values, non zero, if a queue is
initialized properly).

With this patch, blk_queue_stack_limits does the almost same thing
that dm's combine_restrictions_low() does. I think that it's easy to
remove dm's combine_restrictions_low.

Queued up for 2.6.29. It would be nice to get rid of the dm mirror of
this function...
