desc->blksz can only be set in the EFI code because it is only here that
we know the block size.

log2blksz is currently set in:

common/usb_storage.c:1491
drivers/scsi/scsi.c:548
drivers/mmc/mmc.c:2586
drivers/block/ide.c:485
drivers/block/ide.c:530
drivers/block/ide.c:688
drivers/ata/sata.c:100
drivers/nvme/nvme.c:681
disk/part.c:560
disk/part.c:637

blk_create_device() is only called if a board uses the driver model
which unfortunately isn't true for all boards.

Once all boards use CONFIG_DM and CONFIG_BLK we can clean up the code.

Best regards
