block: Align max_hw_sectors to logical blocksize

Block device drivers do not have to call blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() to
set a limit on request size if the default limit BLK_SAFE_MAX_SECTORS
is acceptable. However, this limit (255 sectors) may not be aligned
to the device logical block size which cannot be used as is for a
request maximum size. This is the case for the null_blk device driver.

Modify blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() to make sure that the request size
limits specified by the max_hw_sectors and max_sectors queue limits
are always aligned to the device logical block size. Additionally, to
avoid introducing a dependence on the execution order of this function
with blk_queue_logical_block_size(), also modify
blk_queue_logical_block_size() to perform the same alignment when the
logical block size is set after max_hw_sectors.

block: use gcd() to fix chunk_sectors limit stacking

commit 22ada802ede8 ("block: use lcm_not_zero() when stacking
chunk_sectors") broke chunk_sectors limit stacking. chunk_sectors must
reflect the most limited of all devices in the IO stack.

Otherwise malformed IO may result. E.g.: prior to this fix,
->chunk_sectors = lcm_not_zero(8, 128) would result in
blk_max_size_offset() splitting IO at 128 sectors rather than the
required more restrictive 8 sectors.

And since commit 07d098e6bbad ("block: allow 'chunk_sectors' to be
non-power-of-2") care must be taken to properly stack chunk_sectors to
be compatible with the possibility that a non-power-of-2 chunk_sectors
may be stacked. This is why gcd() is used instead of reverting back
to using min_not_zero().

Merge branch 'dynamic_sg' into rdma.git for-next

From Maor Gottlieb says:

====================
This series extends __sg_alloc_table_from_pages to allow chaining of new
pages to an already initialized SG table.

This allows for drivers to utilize the optimization of merging contiguous
pages without a need to pre allocate all the pages and hold them in a very
large temporary buffer prior to the call to SG table initialization.

The last patch changes the Infiniband core to use the new API. It removes
duplicate functionality from the code and benefits from the optimization
of allocating dynamic SG table from pages.

In huge pages system of 2MB page size, without this change, the SG table
would contain x512 SG entries.
====================

* branch 'dynamic_sg':
RDMA/umem: Move to allocate SG table from pages
lib/scatterlist: Add support in dynamic allocation of SG table from pages

ASoC: Updates for v5.10

Not a huge amount going on in the core for ASoC this time but quite a
lot of driver activity, especially for the Intel platforms:

- Replacement of the DSP driver for some older x86 systems with a new
one which was written with closer reference to the DSP firmware so
should hopefully be more robust and maintainable.
- A big batch of static checker and other fixes for the rest of the x86
DSP drivers.
- Cleanup of the error unwinding code from Morimoto-san, hopefully
making it more robust.
- Helpers for parsing auxiluary devices from the device tree from
Stephan Gerhold.
- New support for AllWinner A64, Cirrus Logic CS4234, Mediatek MT6359
Microchip S/PDIF TX and RX controllers, Realtek RT1015P, and Texas
Instruments J721E, TAS2110, TAS2564 and TAS2764
