blk_validate_limits() requires max_hw_sectors >= PAGE_SECTORS and fires
a WARN_ON_ONCE if this invariant is violated. ublk_validate_params()
only checked the upper bound of max_sectors against max_io_buf_bytes,
allowing userspace to pass small values (including zero) that trigger
the warning when blk_mq_alloc_disk() is called from
ublk_ctrl_start_dev().
Before 494ea040bc, ublk used blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() which silently
clamped small values up to PAGE_SECTORS. The conversion to passing
queue_limits directly to blk_mq_alloc_disk() lost that clamping and now
hits blk_validate_limits()'s WARN_ON_ONCE instead.
Validate that max_sectors is at least PAGE_SECTORS in
ublk_validate_params() so invalid values are rejected early with
-EINVAL instead of reaching the block layer.
Fixes: 494ea040bc ("ublk: pass queue_limits to blk_mq_alloc_disk")
