Xip does only work, if both do match PAGE_SIZE because it
does'nt support multiple calls to direct_access in the get_xip_page

changed from how it looks after your patch as a bugfix where our
tester tried a 4k filesystem on a 2k blockdev.
Did I miss something?
However, the bdev block size may be changed with sb_set_blocksize. It
doesn't actually have to match the hardware sector size -- if this
does matter for XIP, then I think you need some other check here.
Hmmmmhh. For a bdev with PAGE_SIZE hardsect size, there is no other
valid value then PAGE_SIZE that one could set it to. Or can it indeed
be changed to a value greater then PAGE_SIZE or smaller then hardsect
size?
