I send patches and get no feedback from the maintainer (you). So I
work on other things instead. The 4k sector size support is largely
theoretical anyway, given that every _SATA_ vendor I've heard from is
planning on doing 4k physical / 512 byte logical sectors. SAS is a
different matter, but is irrelevant to this series of patches.
