ublk_drv currently creates block devices with the default max_segments and max_segment_size limits of BLK_MAX_SEGMENTS (128) and BLK_MAX_SEGMENT_SIZE (65536) respectively. These defaults can artificially constrain the I/O size seen by the ublk server - for example, suppose that the ublk server has configured itself to accept I/Os up to 1M and the application is also issuing 1M sized I/Os. If the I/O buffer used by the application is backed by 4K pages, the buffer could consist of up to 1M / 4K = 256 physically discontiguous segments (even if the buffer is virtually contiguous). As such, the I/O could exceed the default max_segments limit and get split. This can cause unnecessary performance issues if the ublk server is optimized to handle 1M I/Os. The block layer's segment count/size limits exist to model hardware constraints which don't exist in ublk_drv's case, so just remove those limits for the block devices created by ublk_drv.
