md/md-linear: Enable atomic writes

Browse Source 
All the infrastructure has already been plumbed to support this for
stacked devices, so just enable the request_queue limits features flag.

A note about chunk sectors for linear arrays:
While it is possible to set a chunk sectors param for building a linear
array, this is for specifying the granularity at which data sectors from
the device are used. It is not the same as a stripe size, like for RAID0.

As such, it is not appropriate to set chunk_sectors request queue limit to
the same value, as chunk_sectors request limit is a boundary for which
requests cannot straddle.

However, request_queue limit max_hw_sectors is set to chunk sectors, which
almost has the same effect as setting chunk_sectors limit.
