It's purely a soft block device. I'll add that in the commit message
with any other changes suggested or requested.

I'd really like some feedback about the implementation. I've done tests
around here, but I may still have gotten something wrong. And I sure
hope I haven't messed with the backlight. But nothing points that I've
done so.

Anyway, I'd like some review.

Thanks,
Cascardo.
