ok, so 4G device with 4k sectors; 4k sectors + log sunit is what made
the calculated min_logblocks large enough that it is failing without
this change. Those details should probably be in the commit log.
Also, nitpick, it doesn't have to exceed, and MAX() doesn't make it exceed....
maybe:
/* Log size can't be less than the minimum the geometry requires. */
Code wise it's fine, I'd prefer to see commit log & comment tidied up, but:
