Is that really true these days?   I believe there are assumptions that
the physical block size is no smaller than DEV_BSIZE (or more correctly,
that if the physical size is smaller, the driver will hide that fact), but
anything that is assuming that they are identical is most probably just a bug,
that assumption was supposed to have been removed ages ago.
