[ Upstream commit dacc73ed0b88f1a787ec20385f42ca9dd9eddcd0 ]
Currently the value of max_discard_segment will be set to
MAX_DISCARD_SEGMENTS (256) with no basis in hardware if device
set 0 to max_discard_seg in configuration space. It's incorrect
since the device might not be able to handle such large descriptors.
To fix it, let's follow max_segments restrictions in this case.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
