block: remove remnant refs to hardsect
commit e1defc4ff0cf57aca6c5e3ff99fa503f5943c1f1 "block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_size" removed the notion of "hardware sector size" from the kernel in favor of logical block size, but references remain in comments and documentation. Update the remaining sites mentioning hardsect. Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
