The hpsa firmware will bypass the cache for any request larger than 1MB, so we should cap the request size to avoid any performance degradation in kernels later than v4.3 This degradation is caused from d2be537c3ba3568acd79cd178327b842e60d035e, which changed max_sectors_kb to 1280k, but the hardware is able to work fine with it, so the true fix should be from hpsa driver.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
