I saw Michael asked for .validate() in v2. I would prefer to keep
everything in virtblk_probe() instead of adding .validate() because:

- There is a race condition that an untrusted device can exploit since
  virtblk_probe() fetches the value again.

- It's more complex now that .validate() takes a first shot at blk_size
  and then virtblk_probe() deals with it again later on.
