The given offset could also start anywhere, so it's better to
auto-align it like the size.

If the arguments extend beyond the end of the flash, then
nand_torture() will return an error at each iteration, so it's better
to break the loop or not to start it in this case.

It's better to print the range actually tortured than the arguments
from the user.

So what about the following?
