The current virtblk's naming algorithm only supports 263 disks.
If there are mass of virtblks(exceeding 263), there will be disks
with the same name.
By renaming "sd_format_disk_name()" to "disk_name_format()"
and moving it into block core, virtio_blk can use this function to
support mass of disks.
