[Cbe-oss-dev] [PATCH] ps3rom: sector size should be 512 bytes

Greetings Geert and Co,

I have a related patch that I have been using with ps3rom.c for some
time that fixes a bug in fs/bio.c that assumes 512 byte sectors for
ATAPI operations.  This bug actually exists for all non 512 byte sector
devices go through this code path (I found it with
scsi_execute_async()), but I first ran into this issue with ps3rom.c
because max_sectors (32) is small enough to trigger the bug assuming 512
byte sectors during typical ATAPI READ_10 ops with iSCSI/HD.  Because
typical max_sector settings for libata and USB are much higher, I have
never ran into this issue outside of ps3rom.c, but the bug exists
nevertheless..

The current patch assumes 512 byte sectors, and adds a sector_size
parameter to drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c:scsi_req_map_sg() to change it for
passed struct request.  I know that some folks talked about killing
scsi_execute_async() and fixing this problem elsewhere, but until then
please consider this patch.  Any input is also appreciated.

:-)
