-ata_pio_sectors() expects buffer for each sector to be contained in a
-single page; otherwise, it ends up overrunning the first page. This
-is achieved by setting queue DMA alignment. If sector_size is smaller
-than PAGE_SIZE and all buffers are sector_size aligned, buffer for
-each sector is always contained in a single page.
-
-This wasn't applied to ATAPI devices but IDENTIFY_PACKET is executed
-as ATA_PROT_PIO and thus uses ata_pio_sectors(). Newer versions of
-udev issue IDENTIFY_PACKET with unaligned buffer triggering the
-problem and causing oops.
-
-This patch fixes the problem by setting sdev->sector_size to
-ATA_SECT_SIZE on ATATPI devices and always setting DMA alignment to
-sector_size. While at it, add a warning for the unlikely but still
-possible scenario where sector_size is larger than PAGE_SIZE, in which
-case the alignment wouldn't be enough.
