[PATCH] virtio_blk: Add help function to format mass of disks

[Ren Mingxin]

The current virtio block's naming algorithm just supports 18278
(26^3 + 26^2 + 26) disks. If there are mass of virtio blocks,
there will be disks with the same name.

Based on commit 3e1a7ff8a0a7b948f2684930166954f9e8e776fe, I add
function "virtblk_name_format()" for virtio block to support mass
of disks naming.
