scsi: sd: Enable sector size > PAGE_SIZE in SCSI sd driver

Browse source

The WRITE SAME(16) and WRITE SAME(10) SCSI commands use a page from a
dedicated mempool (sd_page_pool) for their payload. This pool was
initialized to allocate single pages, which was sufficient as long as the
device sector size did not exceed the PAGE_SIZE.

Given that block layer now supports block size upto 64KB, i.e. beyond
PAGE_SIZE, initialize a large page pool in sd_probe() if a higher sector
device is attached, ensuring atomicity. Adapt sd_set_special_bvec() to use
large page pool when a higher sector size device is attached. Hence enable
sector sizes > PAGE_SIZE in SCSI sd driver.
