xen-blkfront: correct maximum segment accounting
Making use of "max_indirect_segments=" has issues: - blkfront_setup_indirect() may end up with zero psegs when PAGE_SIZE is sufficiently much larger than XEN_PAGE_SIZE - the variable driven by the command line option (xen_blkif_max_segments) has a somewhat different purpose, and hence should namely never end up being zero - as long as the specified value is lower than the legacy default, we better don't use indirect segments at all (or we'd in fact lower throughput) Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>
