We would save an comparision here if we use it like this:

...
                if (brq.data.blocks > 1) {

                 /*
                  * After a read error, we redo the request one sector at a time

                  if (disable_multi)
                    brq.data.blocks = 1;                        

                  /* SPI multiblock writes terminate using a special
