firewire: fw-sbp2: enforce s/g segment size limit
1. We don't need to round the SBP-2 segment size limit down to a multiple of 4 kB (0xffff -> 0xf000). It is only necessary to ensure quadlet alignment (0xffff -> 0xfffc). 2. Use dma_set_max_seg_size() to tell the DMA mapping infrastructure and the block IO layer about the restriction. This way we can remove the size checks and segment splitting in the queuecommand path. This assumes that no other code in the firewire stack uses dma_map_sg() with conflicting requirements. It furthermore assumes that the controller device's platform actually allows us to set the segment size to our liking. Assert the latter with a BUG_ON(). 3. Also use blk_queue_max_segment_size() to tell the block IO layer about it. It cannot know it because our scsi_add_host() does not point to the FireWire controller's device. Thanks to Grant Grundler and FUJITA Tomonori for advice. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>
