ZoL had been setting max_sectors to UINT_MAX, but until Linux 3.19, it
the kernel artifically capped it at 1024 (BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS).
This cap was removed in torvalds/linux@34b48db. This patch changes
it to DMU_MAX_ACCESS (in sectors) and also changes the ASSERT in
dmu_tx_hold_write() to allow the maximum transfer size.
