[PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 066/211] megaraid_sas: Do not use PAGE_SIZE for max_sectors

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Tue Jan 05 2016 - 15:35:12 EST


4.2.8-ckt1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: "sumit.saxena@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <sumit.saxena@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 357ae967ad66e357f78b5cfb5ab6ca07fb4a7758 upstream.

Do not use PAGE_SIZE marco to calculate max_sectors per I/O
request. Driver code assumes PAGE_SIZE will be always 4096 which can
lead to wrongly calculated value if PAGE_SIZE is not 4096. This issue
was reported in Ubuntu Bugzilla Bug #1475166.
