ata: libata: Set __ATA_BASE_SHT max_sectors
Commit 0568e6122574 ("ata: libata-scsi: cap ata_device->max_sectors
according to shost->max_sectors") inadvertently capped the max_sectors
value for some SATA disks to a value which is lower than we would want.
For a device which supports LBA48, we would previously have request queue
max_sectors_kb and max_hw_sectors_kb values of 1280 and 32767 respectively.
For AHCI controllers, the value chosen for shost max sectors comes from
the minimum of the SCSI host default max sectors in
SCSI_DEFAULT_MAX_SECTORS (1024) and the shost DMA device mapping limit.
This means that we would now set the max_sectors_kb and max_hw_sectors_kb
values for a disk which supports LBA48 at 512, ignoring DMA mapping limit.
As report by Oliver at [0], this caused a performance regression.
Fix by picking a large enough max sectors value for ATA host controllers
such that we don't needlessly reduce max_sectors_kb for LBA48 disks.
