Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.15 19/21] null_blk: fix validation of block size

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

[ Upstream commit c462ecd659b5fce731f1d592285832fd6ad54053 ]

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].
