Looking at this test, I'm not convinced it actually does the right
thing when the block size is 64k, since the whole point is to test
what happens when the block number > INT_MAX.  So we should be able to
fix the block size to be 1k, which would allow us to use a smaller
dmhugedisk, and then skip this test if dax is enabled.

OTOH, generic/620 runs pretty quicky, so perhaps it's better to do
thie quick fix: hardcode the block size to 4k, and then skip it if dax
&& page_size != 4k.
