Jeff Dike 8619b86f20 uml: limit request size on COWed devices
COWed devices can't handle more than 32 (64 on x86_64) sectors in one request
due to the size of the bitmap being carried around in the io_thread_req.

Enforce that by telling the block layer not to put too many sectors in
requests to COWed devices.
