This should print a message.  Unfortunately we don't have the device
name here (for that we'd need to set it at disk/queue allocation time,
which will require a bit of work), but even without that it will be
very useful.

Ok, I can print a message, like:

	pr_warn("Invalid logical block size (%d)\n", bsize);

I am wary though that userspace could trigger this message from the various ioctls to set the bsize.


+/* blk_validate_limits() validates bsize, so drivers don't need to */

maybe throw in a usually or normally?


fine
