virtio-blk: Fix geometry sector calculation
Currently the sector value for the geometry is masked, even if the user usesa command line parameter that explicitely gives a number. This breaks dasd devices on s390. A dasd device can have a physical block size of 4096 (== same for logical block size) and a typcial geometry of 15 heads and 12 sectors per cyl. The ibm partition detection relies on a correct geometry reported by the device. Unfortunately the current code changes 12 to 8. This would be necessary if the total size is not a multiple of logical sector size, but for dasd this is not the case. This patch checks the device size and only applies sector mask if necessary.
