Actually, it may be much worse, it may be that the author of ciss(4) new that ciss(4)'s largest supported I/O size was larger than 128k so they didn't bother handling the limit at all giving the false impression the hardware has
no limit.

You're exactly right. The solution is to do a proper audit and fix the potential problems, not add yet another 1-off flag that avoids doing real work. If you want to help, keep in mind that I need help _generating_ patches, not testing them. I appreciate all of the testing goodwill out there, but analysis and fixing goodwill is needed at this phase.
