This doesn't work when pdev is NULL.  And I think we could drop the
FIXME comment and the kernel::max_block_size() method altogether.  It
seems unlikely to me that any hardware back-end will ever need the
per-kernel setting, and the Gallium API doesn't support it.

I've pushed a different fix [1] based on your patch that takes care of
that.

Thank you.
