John Garry 17fd1dd9f5 block: fix stacking of atomic writes when atomics are not supported 
[ Upstream commit f2d8c5a2f7 ]

Atomic writes support may not always be possible when stacking devices
which support atomic writes. Such as case is a different atomic write
boundary between stacked devices (which is not supported).

In the case that atomic writes cannot supported, the top device queue HW
limits are set to 0.

However, in blk_stack_atomic_writes_limits(), we detect that we are
stacking the first bottom device by checking the top device
atomic_write_hw_max value == 0. This get confused with the case of atomic
writes not supported, above.

Make the distinction between stacking the first bottom device and no
atomics supported by initializing stacked device atomic_write_hw_max =
UINT_MAX and checking that for stacking the first bottom device.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
