Let's allow to force BBM, even if subblocks would be possible. Take care of properly calculating the first big block id, because the start address might no longer be aligned to the big block size. Also, allow to manually configure the size of Big Blocks. Reviewed-by: Wei Yang <richard.weiyang@linux.alibaba.com> Cc: "Michael S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
