Some devices can expose mw_cunits equal to 0, it can cause the creation of too small write buffer and cause performance to drop on write workloads. Additionally, write buffer size must cover write data requirements, such as WS_MIN and MW_CUNITS - it must be greater than or equal to the larger one multiplied by the number of PUs. However, for performance reasons, use the WS_OPT value to calculation instead of WS_MIN. Because the place where buffer size is calculated was changed, this patch also removes pgs_in_buffer filed in pblk structure.

README
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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
