[PATCHv1, RFC 18/33] HACK: block: bump BIO_MAX_PAGES

From: Kirill A. Shutemov <hidden>
Date: 2016-07-26 00:35:20
Also in: linux-ext4, linux-fsdevel, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: block layer, the rest · Maintainers: Jens Axboe, Linus Torvalds

We are going to do IO a huge page a time. For x86-64, it's 512 pages, so
we need to double current BIO_MAX_PAGES.

To be portable to other archtectures we need more generic solution.
