The protection interval is not necessarily tied to the logical block

Going forward we will use the term "seed" to describe the initial
reference tag value for a given I/O. "Interval" will be used to describe
the portion of the data buffer that a given piece of protection
information is associated with.

Following this patch we should modify scsi layer to compute with
interval instead of sector_size.
