+ * @size:       size of the buffer in bytes

+ * Some devices have excess DMA problems and can't simply discard (or
+ * zero fill) the unwanted piece of the transfer.  They have to have a
+ * real area of memory to transfer it into.  The use case for this is
+ * ATAPI devices in DMA mode.  If the packet command causes a transfer
+ * bigger than the transfer size some HBAs will lock up if there
+ * aren't DMA elements to contain the excess transfer.  What this API
+ * does is adjust the queue so that the buf is always appended
+ * silently to the scatterlist.
+ *
+ * Note: This routine adjusts max_hw_segments to make room for
+ * appending the drain buffer.  If you call
+ * blk_queue_max_hw_segments() or blk_queue_max_phys_segments() after
+ * calling this routine, you must set the limit to one fewer than your
+ * device can support otherwise there won't be room for the drain
+ * buffer.
