This is a *really* cumbersome interface which will doubtless be found to
be broken at some point by some hardware that does have separate
restrictons on both.  Let's just specify the limit directly unless
there's some pressing reason not to.

There's also something off with the way you're posting the patches, your
patch series isn't threaded together.
