nvme: set dma alignment to qword
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The default dma alignment mask is 511, which is much larger than any nvme
controller requires. NVMe controllers accept qword aligned DMA addresses,
so set the request_queue constraints to that. This can help avoid bounce
buffers on user passthrough commands.
