We've tested this with bs > ps (LBS) devices and it would seem it crashes,
as Pankaj notes perhaps due to lack of higher order folio support yet
on this path, for the block cache. The same crash happens with NVMe
(using out-of-tree nvme_core.debug_large_lbas boot parameter to enable NVMe
LBS) or brd with LBS. To enable NVMe LBS or brd with LBS you need
out of tree patches though of course, so I've stashed these into
a branch, large-block-20230426 [0] so to help folks who may want
to experiment further.

To reproduce one would want a system with only say XFS as the root
image. I've enabled this on kdevops through "pure-iomap" option:
