[PATCH] md: remove arbitrary limit on chunk size
The largest chunk size the code can support without substantial surgery is 2^30 bytes, so make that the limit instead of an arbitrary 4Meg. Some day, the 'chunksize' should change to a sector-shift instead of a byte-count. Then no limit would be needed.
