Subject: [PATCH 4.6 046/203] sd: Fix rw_max for devices that report an optimal xfer size

4.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@...cle.com>

commit 6b7e9cde49691e04314342b7dce90c67ad567fcc upstream.

For historic reasons, io_opt is in bytes and max_sectors in block layer
sectors. This interface inconsistency is error prone and should be
fixed. But for 4.4--4.7 let's make the unit difference explicit via a
wrapper function.

Fixes: d0eb20a863ba ("sd: Optimal I/O size is in bytes, not sectors")
