The iSER driver reduces max_sectors. For example, if you load the
ib_iser module with max_sectors=1024, you will see that
/sys/class/block/<bdev>/queue/max_hw_sectors_kb is 508. It is an
incorrect value. The expected value is (max_sectors * sector_size) /
1024 = 512.
Reducing of max_sectors can cause performance degradation due to
unnecessary splitting of IO requests.
The number of pages per MR has been fixed here, so there is no longer
any need to reduce max_sectors.

The block layer can reliably guarantee that SG lists won't
contain gaps (page unaligned) if a driver set the queue
virt_boundary.
With this setting the block layer will:
- refuse merges if bios are not aligned to the virtual boundary
- split bios/requests that are not aligned to the virtual boundary
- or, bounce buffer SG_IOs that are not aligned to the virtual boundary
Since iser is working in 4K page size, set the virt_boundary to
4K pages. With this setting, we can now safely remove the bounce
buffering logic in iser.

iser support up to 512KB data transfer in a single scsi command.
This means that larger IOs will split to different request. While
iser can easily saturate FDR/EDR wires, some arrays are fine tuned
for 1MB (or larger) IO sizes, hence add an option to support larger
transfers (up to 8MB) if the device allows it.
Given that a few target implementations don't support data transfers
of more than 512KB by default and the fact that larger IO sizes require
more resources, we introduce a module parameter to determine the
maximum number of 512B sectors in a single scsi command.
Users that are interested in larger transfers can change this value given
that the target supports larger transfers.
At the moment, iser works in 4K pages granularity, In a later stage
we will get it to work with system page size instead.
IO operations that consists of N pages will need a page vector
of size N+1 in case the first SG element contains an offset. Given
that some devices allocates memory regions in powers of 2, this
means that allocating a region with N+1 pages, will result in
region resources allocation of the next power of 2. Since we don't
want that to happen, in case we are in the limit of IO size supported
and the first SG element has an offset, we align the SG list using a
bounce buffer (which is OK given that this is not likely to happen a lot).

In some rare cases, IO operations may be not aligned to page
boundaries. This prevents iser from performing fast memory
registration. In order to overcome that iser uses a bounce
buffer to carry the transaction. We basically allocate a buffer
in the size of the transaction and perform a copy.
The buffer allocation using kmalloc is too restrictive since it
requires higher order (atomic) allocations for large transactions
(which may result in memory exhaustion fairly fast for some workloads).
We rewrite the bounce buffer code path to allocate scattered pages
and perform a copy between the transaction sg and the bounce sg.

where there are no posted receive buffers on the initiator side, so
it's possible for the iSER RC connection to break because of RNR NAK /
