How about the (untested) patch below? The approach below avoids that the check is
duplicated and - at least in my opinion - results in code that is easier to read.
I find lba_too_large() a little dense, but functionally OK. The "shift >= 0" clause could be dropped.
I tested this on my "problem" system (READ CAPACITY(10)) without incident.
