Yes, looks nice, and works for me. My only criticism would be, minor issue unchanged by your patch, that actually "slop" isn't unlikely enough to deserve an "unlikely" - slop of 1 or 3 is unlikely, but slop of 2 is quite common.
Common on what types of ATAPI commands? I can hardly believe that they are common on the block I/O...
When I checked (mounting and listing a CD), about 34% of commands had slop 2.
Hm, that probably involved the raw block reads. I don't remember the raw sector length off-hand but it may well be just even, not divisble by 4.
But you're right, now I try copying a large file, there's no slop involved in that at all.
