dm: fix IO splitting
Commit 882ec4e609c1 ("dm table: stack 'chunk_sectors' limit to account for target-specific splitting") caused a couple regressions: 1) Using lcm_not_zero() when stacking chunk_sectors was a bug because chunk_sectors must reflect the most limited of all devices in the IO stack. 2) DM targets that set max_io_len but that do _not_ provide an .iterate_devices method no longer had there IO split properly. And commit 5091cdec56fa ("dm: change max_io_len() to use blk_max_size_offset()") also caused a regression where DM no longer supported varied (per target) IO splitting. The implication being the potential for severely reduced performance for IO stacks that use a DM target like dm-cache to hide performance limitations of a slower device (e.g. one that requires 4K IO splitting). Coming full circle: Fix all these issues by discontinuing stacking chunk_sectors up using ti->max_io_len in dm_calculate_queue_limits(), add optional chunk_sectors override argument to blk_max_size_offset() and update DM's max_io_len() to pass ti->max_io_len to its blk_max_size_offset() call. Passing in an optional chunk_sectors override to blk_max_size_offset() allows for code reuse of block's centralized calculation for max IO size based on provided offset and split boundary.
