bdev: add hint prints in sb_set_blocksize() for LBS dependency on THP
Support for block sizes greater than the page size depends on large
folios, which in turn require CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE to be enabled.
Because the code is wrapped in multiple layers of abstraction, this
dependency is rather obscure, so users may not realize it and may be
unsure how to enable LBS.
As suggested by Theodore, I have added hint messages in sb_set_blocksize
so that users can distinguish whether a mount failure with block size
larger than page size is due to lack of filesystem support or the absence
of CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE.
