nbd: limit module parameters to a sane value
The 'max_part' parameter controls the number of maximum partition
a nbd device can have. However if a user specifies very large
value it would exceed the limitation of device minor number and
can cause a kernel oops (or, at least, produce invalid device
nodes in some cases).
In addition, specifying large 'nbds_max' value causes same
problem for the same reason.
On my desktop, following command results to the kernel bug:
$ sudo modprobe nbd max_part=100000
