scsi: ufs: core: Increase the maximum data buffer size

Measurements for one particular UFS controller + UFS device show a 25%
higher read bandwidth if the maximum data buffer size is increased from 512
KiB to 1 MiB. Hence increase the maximum size of the data buffer associated
with a single request from SCSI_DEFAULT_MAX_SECTORS (1024) * 512 bytes =
512 KiB to 1 MiB.

Notes:

 - The maximum data buffer size supported by the UFSHCI specification
   is 65535 * 256 KiB or about 16 GiB.

 - The maximum data buffer size for READ(10) commands is 65535 logical
   blocks. To transfer more than 65535 * 4096 bytes = 255 MiB with a single
   SCSI command, the READ(16) command is required. Support for READ(16) is
   optional in the UFS 3.1 and UFS 4.0 standards.
