Subject: [PATCH v2] null_blk: fix validation of block size

From: Andreas Hindborg <a.hindborg@...sung.com>

Block size should be between 512 and PAGE_SIZE and be a power of 2. The current
check does not validate this, so update the check.

Without this patch, null_blk would Oops due to a null pointer deref when
loaded with bs=1536 [1].

Changes from v2:

 - Use blk_validate_block_size instead of open coding the check.
 - Change upper bound of chec from 4096 to PAGE_SIZE.

V1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240601202351.691952-1-nmi@metaspace.dk/
