Christian Borntraeger 066f4d82a6 virtio_blk: check for hardsector size from host
Currently virtio_blk assumes a 512 byte hard sector size. This can cause
trouble / performance issues if the backing has a different block size
(like a file on an ext3 file system formatted with 4k block size or a dasd).

Lets add a feature flag that tells the guest to use a different hard sector
size than 512 byte.
