Three small fixes. The transfer size fixes are actually correcting
some performance drops on the hpsa and smartpqi cards. The cards
actually have an internal cache for request speed up but bypass it for
transfers > 1MB. Since 4.3 the efficiency of our merges has rendered
the cache mostly unused, so limit transfers to under 1MB to recover
the cache boost.
