From 1dffddddd8315863f1a6d79c512b737864ef6a1a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shaohua Li Date: Thu, 8 Sep 2016 10:49:06 -0700 Subject: raid5: allow arbitrary max_hw_sectors raid5 will split bio to proper size internally, there is no point to use underlayer disk's max_hw_sectors. In my qemu system, without the change, the raid5 only receives 128k size bio, which reduces the chance of bio merge sending to underlayer disks.
