virtio_blk: provide getgeo
Rusty,
I currently try to make my guest boot from an virtio root device
without having an external kernel. Some of the tools that I tried
expect HDIO_GETGEO to work. The most interesting value is likely
the geo.start value to get the offset of a partition. This value
is filled by block/ioctl.c if fops->getgeo is set. This patch also
fills in some standard values for heads, sectors and cylinders.
Makes sense?
