[ Upstream commit fce54ed027 ]
If the controller is behind an IOMMU then the IOMMU IOVA caching range can
affect performance, as discussed in [0].
Limit the max HW sectors to not exceed this limit. We need to hardcode the
value until a proper DMA mapping API is available.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
