I only did a quick&dirty grep looking for MAXPHYS in /sys.
Some drivers redefine MAXPHYS to be 512KiB. Some use their own local
MAXPHYS which is usually 128KiB.
Some look at MAXPHYS to figure out other things; the details escape me.
There's one driver which actually uses 100*MAXPHYS for something, but I
didn't check the details.
Lots of them were non-CAM drivers AFAICT.
