Subject: [Patch 1/2] cciss: fix for 2TB support

Patch 1/2

This patch changes the way we determine if a logical volume is larger than 2TB. The
original test looked for a total_size of 0. Originally we added 1 to the total_size.
That would make our read_capacity return size 0 for >2TB lv's. We assumed that we
could not have a lv size of 0 so it seemed OK until we were in a clustered system. The
backup node would see a size of 0 due to the reservation on the drive. That caused
the driver to switch to 16-byte CDB's which are not supported on older controllers.
After that everything was broken.
It may seem petty but I don't see the value in trying to determine if the LBA is
beyond the 2TB boundary. That's why when we switch we use 16-byte CDB's for all
read/write operations.
Please consider this for inclusion.
