The NBD protocol would like to advertise the optimal I/O
size to the client; but it would be a layering violation to
peek into blk_bs(blk)->bl, when we only have a BB.
I just copied the existing blk_get_max_transfer_length() in
reading a value from the top BDS; I have no idea if
bdrv_refresh_limits() properly picks a size valid over the
entire BDS chain as part of its recursion, but if not, it
would be audit of existing code in addition to the new
accessor function added here.
