Mikulas Patocka c4fa368466 blk-lib: fix blkdev_issue_secure_erase
There's a bug in blkdev_issue_secure_erase. The statement
"unsigned int len = min_t(sector_t, nr_sects, max_sectors);"
sets the variable "len" to the length in sectors, but the statement
"bio->bi_iter.bi_size = len" treats it as if it were in bytes.
The statements "sector += len << SECTOR_SHIFT" and "nr_sects -= len <<
SECTOR_SHIFT" are thinko.

This patch fixes it.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
