Johannes Thumshirn fe6f0cdc49 block: soft limit zone-append sectors as well
Martin rightfully noted that for normal filesystem IO we have soft limits
in place, to prevent them from getting too big and not lead to
unpredictable latencies. For zone append we only have the hardware limit
in place.

Cap the max sectors we submit via zone-append to the maximal number of
sectors if the second limit is lower.

README

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.
