From 8d55a786febd077f3a0db9f0672dfa1288b452af Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Cox Date: Sun, 25 Jun 2006 01:58:58 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [SCSI] Bogus disk geometry on large disks We currently stuff a truncated size into the geometry logic and return the result which can produce bizarre reports for a 4Tb array. Since that mapping logic isn't useful for disks that big don't try and map this way at all.
