If a WRITE SAME(10/16) command fails and the UNMAP bit is not set we'll set no_write_same=1 and disable REQ_WRITE_SAME support. If a WRITE SAME(10/16) command fails and the UNMAP bit is set we'll disable REQ_DISCARD support. Not sure where the 10 vs. 16 byte 2TB limitation comes into play here? -- Martin K.
