Subject: blk_queue_hardsect_size 520-byte sector

Hi,

Can I call blk_queue_hardsect_size in a driver and set it to 520-byte as hardware sector size. 
How does the kernel and block layers take the request, will it be in multiples of 520-bytes aligned or 512 bytes aligned?

Thanks for your help in advance.

with regards,
  Anil
