Subject: [PATCH] block: fix max discard sectors limit

From: James Bottomley <[email protected]>

linux-v3.8-rc1 and later support for plug for blkdev_issue_discard with
commit 0cfbcafcae8b7364b5fa96c2b26ccde7a3a296a9
(block: add plug for blkdev_issue_discard )

For example,
1) DISCARD rq-1 with size size 4GB
2) DISCARD rq-2 with size size 1GB

If these 2 discard requests get merged, final request size will be 5GB.

In this case, request's __data_len field may overflow as it can store
max 4GB(unsigned int).

This issue was observed while doing mkfs.f2fs on 5GB SD card:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/1/292

Info: sector size = 512
Info: total sectors = 11370496 (in 512bytes)
Info: zone aligned segment0 blkaddr: 512
[ 257.789764] blk_update_request: bio idx 0 >= vcnt 0

mkfs process gets stuck in D state and I see the following in the dmesg:

[ 257.789733] __end_that: dev mmcblk0: type=1, flags=122c8081
[ 257.789764] sector 4194304, nr/cnr 2981888/4294959104
[ 257.789764] bio df3840c0, biotail df3848c0, buffer (null), len
1526726656
[ 257.789764] blk_update_request: bio idx 0 >= vcnt 0
[ 257.794921] request botched: dev mmcblk0: type=1, flags=122c8081
[ 257.794921] sector 4194304, nr/cnr 2981888/4294959104
[ 257.794921] bio df3840c0, biotail df3848c0, buffer (null), len
1526726656

This patch fixes this issue.

The two signoffs need to be reversed (they follow the chain of
transmission from the author into the kernel), but other than that, this
looks great. I assume Jens can just hand edit this one issue.

Thanks,

James

Thanks! One minor nit - I don't think James signed off on the patch when
he sent it in. James?

I didn't, but silence is really acquiescence in this game. However, now
you have my positive confirmation that I'm good with the signoff.

Yeah, I'll just hand edit thank. Thanks all.
