Let's validate the memory block size early, when initializing the memory device infrastructure. Fail hard in case the value is not suitable. As nobody checks the return value of memory_dev_init(), turn it into a void function and fail with a panic in all scenarios instead. Otherwise, we'll crash later during boot when core/drivers expect that the memory device infrastructure (including memory_block_size_bytes()) works as expected. I think long term, we should move the whole memory block size configuration (set_memory_block_size_order() and memory_block_size_bytes()) into drivers/base/memory.c.
