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
