[PATCH] cciss: fix for 2TB support
This patch changes the way we determine if a logical volume is larger than
2TB.
The original test looked for a total_size of 0. Originally we added 1 to the
total_size. That would make our read_capacity return size 0 for >2TB lv's.
We assumed that we could not have a lv size of 0 so it seemed OK until we were
in a clustered system. The backup node would see a size of 0 due to the
reservation on the drive. That caused the driver to switch to 16-byte CDB's
which are not supported on older controllers. After that everything was
broken.
It may seem petty but I don't see the value in trying to determine if the LBA
is beyond the 2TB boundary. That's why when we switch we use 16-byte CDB's
for all read/write operations. Please consider this for inclusion.
