Subject: md/raid0: apply base queue limits *before* disk_stack_limits

From: NeilBrown <[email protected]>

commit 66eefe5de11db1e0d8f2edc3880d50e7c36a9d43 upstream.

Calling e.g. blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() after calls to disk_stack_limits() discards the settings determined by disk_stack_limits().
So we need to make those calls first.
