The subject says limits for copy-offload...

Add device limits as sysfs entries,
        - copy_offload (RW)
        - copy_max_bytes (RW)
        - copy_max_hw_bytes (RO)
        - copy_max_range_bytes (RW)
        - copy_max_range_hw_bytes (RO)
        - copy_max_nr_ranges (RW)
        - copy_max_nr_ranges_hw (RO)
Some of these seem like generic... and also I see a few more max_hw ones
not listed above...
queue_limits and sysfs entries are differently named.
All sysfs entries start with copy_* prefix. Also it makes easy to lookup
all copy sysfs.
For queue limits naming, I tried to following existing queue limit
convention (like discard).

Please use EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() for all new things.
acked.
Why is this setting both? The documentation does't seem to say.
What's the point?
This function is used only by driver, while intializing request queue.
I will put this as part of description next time.

If the kernel schedules, copy_offload may still be true and
max_hw_copy_sectors may be set to 0. Is that an issue?
This check ensures that, we dont enable offload if device doesnt support
offload. I feel it shouldn't be an issue.

The flag may be set but the queue flag could be set. Is that an issue?

Seems like you need to update Documentation/ABI/stable/sysfs-block.

Before limits start growing more.. I wonder if we should just
stuff hw offload stuff to its own struct within queue_limits.

Christoph?

Yeah, would like to know community opinion on this.
