md faulty: use disk_stack_limits() in: fe86cdce block: do not artificially constrain max_sectors for stacking drivers max_sectors defaults to UINT_MAX. md faulty wasn't using disk_stack_limits(), so inherited this large value as well. This triggered a bug in XFS when stressed over md_faulty, when a very large bio_alloc() failed. That was on an older kernel, and I can't reproduce exactly the same thing upstream, but I think the fix is appropriate in any case. Thanks to Mike Snitzer for pointing out the problem.
