The splitting code is working correctly based on the queue limit.
However, since 5.1, full bios are no longer a fixed size and often do
not align with the queue limit. This results in the block layer
splitting some small fragments when submitting consecutive full bios. I
don't think this is specific to a particular device.

While I understand your point about not limiting the bio size, in the
past, the 1MB limit prevented the generation of fragmented bios during
the splitting.
