Linux 6.9 made the nvme multipath nodes not properly pick up changes when
the LBA size goes smaller after an nvme format. This is because we now
try to inherit the queue settings for the multipath node entirely from
the individual paths. That is the right thing to do for I/O size
limitations, which make up most of the queue limits, but it is wrong for
changes to the namespace configuration, where we do want to pick up the
new format, which will eventually show up on all paths once they are
re-queried.
Fix this by not inheriting the block size and related fields and always
for updating them.

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 reStructuredText 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.
