Dziekuje for the patch, but the change logs gotta be in English. :)

I think what you're wanting to say is:

  The physical block size will default to the logical block size unless
  otherwise specified. While NVMe doesn't provide a way to discover the
  physical block size, the format with best relative performance is a
  good indicator as to the underlying block size.

I think this can be a little clearner. How about:

static u32 calc_pbs(struct nvme_id_ns *id)
{
	int i;
	struct nvme_lbaf *best = &id->lbaf[id->flbas & NVME_NS_FLBAS_LBA_MASK];

	for (i = 0; i < id->nlbaf; i++)
		if (id->lbaf[i].rp <= best->rp &&
				id->lbaf[i].ds > best->lbaf.ds &&
				id->lbaf[i].ds <= PAGE_SHIFT)
			best = &id->lbaf[i];

	return 1 << best->ds;
}
