3.7-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Mike Snitzer <[email protected]> commit c1a94672a830e01d58c7c7e8de530c3f136d6ff2 upstream. WRITE SAME bios are not yet handled correctly by device-mapper so disable their use on device-mapper devices by setting max_write_same_sectors to zero. As an example, a ciphertext device is incompatible because the data gets changed according to the location at which it written and so the dm crypt target cannot support it.
