It's not a bizzare line ... it's rounding down to our current set block size. That was the difference I noticed in the reporting. The bio layer maintains a separate sector size from the actual device, so if the error occurs in the middle of a block sector (because block sectors > hard sectors) then we report as though it occurred at the beginning of the block sector.
