When dm_table and dm_target structures are initialized, the "limits" fields (struct io_restrictions) are initialized to zero (e.g. in dm_table_add_target() in dm-table.c). However, zero is not a useable value in these fields. The request queue will never let an I/O through, regardless of how small it might be, if max_sectors is set to zero (see generic_make_request in ll_rw_blk.c). This change to the __LOW() macro sets these fields correctly when they are first initialized.
