It was reported that some devices report an OPTIMAL TRANSFER LENGTH of 0xFFFF blocks. That looks bogus, especially for a device with a 4096-byte physical block size. Ignore OPTIMAL TRANSFER LENGTH if it is not a multiple of the device's reported physical block size. To make the sanity checking conditionals more readable--and to facilitate printing warnings--relocate the checking to a helper function. No functional change aside from the printks.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
