PATCH 1/1 scsi_debug: scale virtual_gb with sector_size properly

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

The scsi_debug virtual_gb feature currently assumes that the sector size is always 512 bytes and scales the capacity of virtual_gb based on that assumption.

When passed a different sector size, the capacity of the disk is scaled incorrectly higher than it should be.

For example, modprobe scsi_debug virtual_gb=1 sector_size=4096 results in an 8 GB device.

This patch scales it appropriately. I chose to scale down the sectors-per-GB value and then multiply so that if virtual_gb is changed to allow devices that can max out sector_t, it will just work.
