Actually, the aic79xx doc we now have through the LF NDA programme says
that the 79xx can also go up to 32 byte CDBs.

But, I suppose the main point is: is this really necessary? The
default, when unspecified, is 16 bytes and the mid-layer can't deliver
anything larger. I would anticipate the large CDB infrastructure will
have some separate enabling, so why not simply do nothing until that
gets merged?
