Eryu Guan reported that loading scsi_debug would fail. This turned out
to be caused by scsi_debug reporting an optimal I/O size of 32KB which
is smaller than the 64KB page size on the PowerPC system in question.

Add a check to ensure that we only use the device-reported OPTIMAL
TRANSFER LENGTH if it is bigger than or equal to the page cache size.

and following that 'else' is:
                 rw_max = BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS;

and blkdev.h says:

enum blk_default_limits {
         BLK_MAX_SEGMENTS        = 128,
         BLK_SAFE_MAX_SECTORS    = 255,
         BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS     = 2560,
         BLK_MAX_SEGMENT_SIZE    = 65536,
         BLK_SEG_BOUNDARY_MASK   = 0xFFFFFFFFUL,
};
