    block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_size · e1defc4f
    Martin K. Petersen authored May 22, 2009
    
    
    Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical
    block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device.
    With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case.  The
    sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain
    512-bytes.  Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size
    and the logical ditto.
    
    This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size.
