I realize your use case will probably not trigger this, but it does
indicate you're limiting at the wrong layer. It places the burden on
all callers of block format drivers instead of centralizing it.
Then it should be centralized in the block layer instead of placing the
burden on all block format drivers ;)
If other drivers need to do that, certainly. However I expect that most
drivers are interested in increasing dma sizes rather than decreasing them.
One thing for instance that still have been overlooked although patches
have been sent is block-raw-posix' read/write_pread_aligned() that
consider partial read/writes as an error. That's a bug.
Right. Unrelated topic though?
