Subject: [RFC PATCH V2]  fs null_blk: Null pointer deference problem in alloc_page_buffers

 If we load the null_blk module with bs=8k we get following oops:
[ 3819.812190] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008
[ 3819.812387] IP: [<ffffffff81170aa5>] create_empty_buffers+0x28/0xaf
[ 3819.812527] PGD 219244067 PUD 215a06067 PMD 0
[ 3819.812640] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP
[ 3819.812772] Modules linked in: null_blk(+)

 Fix that by resetting block size to PAGE_SIZE if it is greater than PAGE_SIZE
 Also add sanity checks for block size > PAGE_SIZE.

Reported-by: Sumanth <sumantk2@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>
Signed-off-by: Raghavendra K T <raghavendra.kt@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>
---
 Changes in V2:
  - Change hardcode 4k to PAGE_SIZE (Jeff, Matias)
  - use pr_warn and move bs setting to null_init (Matias)
  - Move bs > PAGE_SIZE to bd_set_size based on Matias' suggestion.
 
 The full oops below:
