Subject: [PATCH 3.16 106/305] libceph: bump CEPH_MSG_MAX_DATA_LEN

3.16.63-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Ilya Dryomov <idryomov@...il.com>

commit 94e6992bb560be8bffb47f287194adf070b57695 upstream.

If the read is large enough, we end up spinning in the messenger:

  libceph: osd0 192.168.122.1:6801 io error
  libceph: osd0 192.168.122.1:6801 io error
  libceph: osd0 192.168.122.1:6801 io error

This is a receive side limit, so only reads were affected.
