LU-11736 utils: don't set max_sectors_kb on MDT/MGT

The max_sectors_kb tunable should not be applied to MDT and MGT
devices. This tuning is needed for efficiency of large IOs for
spinning disks, but is not needed for SSDs or regular IO. It can
cause problems with DM Multipath configurations for minimal
benefits, so should be limited to OST devices.

This only applies to ldiskfs backend filesystems, no such tuning
is currently done for any ZFS devices.
