Is there a define e.g. SECTOR_SHIFT rather than using this hardcoded "9"
value ?

unsigned -> unsigned int

add a newline between variable declaration and following code.

Also wondering about those 512 constants everywhere in the code
(including prior patches). Perhaps it calls for a SECTOR_SIZE define ?

Just to stay on the safe side, can we do while (size > 0) ? Just in case
an unforeseen issue makes size negative, and gets us in a very long loop.

Thanks,
