Well we can pass in NULL for the while, get the old behaviour.
But yes, I'd prefer to only ever use the get_block() value. It's
really messy though - things like deferring the check of the aligment
of all the iovec segments until we've run get_block...
Maybe we should ask the caller to pass in the alignment itself,
just 512, 2048, etc?
