ide: Check validity of logical block size
Our IDE emulation can't handle logical block sizes other than 512. Check for it. The original assumption was that other values would silently be ignored (which is bad enough), but it's not quite true: The physical block size is exposed in IDENTIFY DEVICE as a multiple of the logical block size. Setting a logical block size therefore also corrupts the physical block size (4096/4096 doesn't silently downgrade to 4096/512, but 512/512).
