I just found it strange that you have this extracted into its own
function, since I just expected it to be present in the init function.
Does this look really that bad?:

    impl kernel::Module for NullBlkModule {
        fn init(_module: &'static ThisModule) -> Result<Self> {
            pr_info!("Rust null_blk loaded\n");
            let block_size: u16 = 4096;
            if block_size % 512 != 0 ||
!(512..=4096).contains(&block_size) {
                return Err(kernel::error::code::EINVAL);
            }

            let disk = {
                let tagset = Arc::pin_init(TagSet::try_new(1, 256, 1),
flags::GFP_KERNEL)?;
                let mut disk = gen_disk::try_new(tagset)?;
                disk.set_name(format_args!("rnullb{}", 0))?;
                disk.set_capacity_sectors(4096 << 11);
                disk.set_queue_logical_block_size(block_size.into());
                disk.set_queue_physical_block_size(block_size.into());
                disk.set_rotational(false);
                disk.add()
            };
            let disk = Box::pin_init(
                new_mutex!(disk, "nullb:disk"),
                flags::GFP_KERNEL,
            )?;

            Ok(Self { _disk: disk })
        }
    }

In that case, I think the error message should reflect that and not just
be a generic "failed to complete request" error.

Hmm, that is strange...
