Currently we just ensure that a non-zero value in chunk_sectors aligns
with any atomic write boundary, as the blk boundary functionality uses
both these values.
However it is also improper to have atomic write unit max > chunk_sectors
(for non-zero chunk_sectors), as this would lead to splitting of atomic
write bios (which is disallowed).
Sanitize atomic write unit max against chunk_sectors to avoid any
potential problems.
Fixes: d00eea91de ("block: Add extra checks in blk_validate_atomic_write_limits()")

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.
