no_write_same is set for all the RAID controller drivers (54b2b50c20a6).

If a WRITE SAME(10/16) command fails and the UNMAP bit is not set we'll
set no_write_same=1 and disable REQ_WRITE_SAME support.

If a WRITE SAME(10/16) command fails and the UNMAP bit is set we'll
disable REQ_DISCARD support.

Not sure where the 10 vs. 16 byte 2TB limitation comes into play here?
