The value we get from the low byte of the ATA_ID_SECTOR_SIZE word is not not
a plain multiple, but the log of it, so fix the helper to give the correct
answer.  Without this we'll get an incorrect minimal I/O size in the block
limits VPD page for 4k sector drives.

   Will this still fit into u8?

WBR, Sergei

Right now the only value we get in practice is 8 for 4k sector drivers
which still fits fine into an u8.  But it might indeed be safer to use a
large value.
