[PATCH v2] lightnvm: change max_phys_sect to ushort

From: Matias BjÃrling
Date: Thu Nov 12 2015 - 13:58:36 EST


The max_phys_sect variable is defined as a char. We do a boundary check
to maximally allow 256 physical page descriptors per command. As we are
not indexing from zero. This expression is always in false. Bump the
max_phys_sect to an unsigned short to support the range chech.
