    pvscsi: Advertise maxio of 256k.
    
    While the PV SCSI SG list can handle 512k of SG entries, it can only do
    so for I/O that's aligned to 4k or better. newfs_msdos does unaligned
    I/O, so triggers too long for host errors in cam when a 512k I/O is
    attempted. Prefer power of 2 256k to the absolute maximum 508k, though
    that can be revisited should the latter show to give significant
    performance improvement.
    
    MFC After:              3 days
    Tested by:              darius on discord (508k version of patch)
    Sponsored by:           Netflix
