OK.  I am curious though - do you know anywhere in the kernel that actually
does submit I/O in buffers that are not aligned to 512?

Subject: [PATCH] mmc_block: ensure all sectors that do not have errors are read

If a card encounters an ECC error while reading a sector it will
timeout.  Instead of reporting the entire I/O request as having
an error, redo the I/O one sector at a time so that all readable
sectors are provided to the upper layers.
