Currently, we cannot have any arbitrary number of free sba_request because sba_prealloc_channel_resources() allocates an array of sba_request using devm_kcalloc() and kcalloc() cannot provide memory beyond certain size. This patch removes "reqs" (sba_request array) from sba_device and makes "cmds" as variable array (instead of pointer) in sba_request. This helps sba_prealloc_channel_resources() to allocate sba_request and associated SBA command in one allocation which in-turn allows arbitrary number of free sba_request.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
