blk: avoid divide-by-zero with zero discard granularity

Commit 8dd2cb7e88 ("block: discard granularity might not be power of
2") changed a couple of 'binary and' operations into modulus operations.
Which turned the harmless case of a zero discard_granularity into a
possible divide-by-zero.

The code also had a much more subtle bug: it was doing the modulus of a
value in bytes using 'sector_t'.  That was always conceptually wrong,
but didn't actually matter back when the code assumed a power-of-two
granularity: we only looked at the low bits anyway.

But with potentially arbitrary sector numbers, using a 'sector_t' to
express bytes is very very wrong: depending on configuration it limits
the starting offset of the device to just 32 bits, and any overflow
would result in a wrong value if the modulus wasn't a power-of-two.

So re-write the code to not only protect against the divide-by-zero, but
to do the starting sector arithmetic in sectors, and using the proper
types.

[ For any mathematicians out there: it also looks monumentally stupid to
  do the 'modulo granularity' operation *twice*, never mind having a "+
  granularity" in the second modulus op.

  But that's the easiest way to avoid negative values or overflow, and
  it is how the original code was done. ]
