  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.
This fix is pretty nice. However, current virtblk's naming still
supports up to 18278 disks, no?
( index 0  ->  vda, index 18277 ->  vdzzz ).

Sorry, I intended to type 26^3+ (26^2+26)...
It may still be a restriction which should be improved though.

Thanks,
Ren
