Subject[008/272] libata: set queue DMA alignment to sector size for ATAPI too
2.6.37-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>

commit 729a6a300e628a48cf12bac93a964a535e83cd1d upstream.

ata_pio_sectors() expects buffer for each sector to be contained in a
single page; otherwise, it ends up overrunning the first page. This
is achieved by setting queue DMA alignment. If sector_size is smaller
than PAGE_SIZE and all buffers are sector_size aligned, buffer for
each sector is always contained in a single page.

This wasn't applied to ATAPI devices but IDENTIFY_PACKET is executed
as ATA_PROT_PIO and thus uses ata_pio_sectors(). Newer versions of
udev issue IDENTIFY_PACKET with unaligned buffer triggering the
problem and causing oops.

This patch fixes the problem by setting sdev->sector_size to
ATA_SECT_SIZE on ATATPI devices and always setting DMA alignment to
sector_size. While at it, add a warning for the unlikely but still
possible scenario where sector_size is larger than PAGE_SIZE, in which
case the alignment wouldn't be enough.
