One can't assume that it is 1 open chunk per lun. If you need this for specific
hardware, make a quirk for it.
Which default you want for 1.2 if not specified then? I use 1 because it
has been the implicit default until now.
INT_MAX, since it then allows the maximum of open chunks. It cannot be assumed
that other 1.2 devices is limited to a single open chunk.
So you want the default to be that all blocks on the device can be
opened at the same time. Interesting... I guess that such a SSD will
have a AA battery attached to it, but fine by me if that's how you want
it.
I feel you're a bit sarcastic here. One may think of SLC and other
memories that does one-shot programming. In that case no caching is
needed, and therefore power-caps can be limited on the hardware.
Assuming this, can we instead set it to the reported number of chunks,
since this is the hard limit anyway.
Works for me.
