NVMe: Format fix when going from 4k sector size to 512 bytes
PATCH v2 1/1 NVMe: Format fix when going from 4k sector size to 512 bytes
If you format a device with a 4k sector size back to 512 bytes, the queue limit values for physical block size and IO sizes were not getting updated; only the logical block size was being updated. This patch adds code to update the physical block and IO sizes.
