Ok. I reworded this to:

        printf("device is too small.\n"
                        "raw partition size: 0x%08llx\n"
                        "partition size w/o bad blocks: 0x%08llx\n"
                        "size needed: 0x%08x\n",
                        s.st_size,
                        s.st_size - num_bb * blocksize,
                        data->len);
