dm cache metadata: do not allow the data block size to change
The block size for the dm-cache's data device must remained fixed for the life of the cache. Disallow any attempt to change the cache's data block size. Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Acked-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
