From d659e6cc98766a1a61d6bdd283f95d149abd7719 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mikulas Patocka Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2009 17:44:30 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] dm io: respect BIO_MAX_PAGES limit dm-io calls bio_get_nr_vecs to get the maximum number of pages to use for a given device. It allocates one additional bio_vec to use internally but failed to respect BIO_MAX_PAGES, so fix this.
