v2: remove bz local var, remove unneeded block size message (Ingo)
v3: restore bz local var, unify block size message (Ingo)
The cumulative effect of bdee237c and 982792c7 is some pretty convoluted
code. This commit has no (intended) functional change; just seeks to
simplify and make the code more understandable.
The whole section with the "tail size" doesn't seem to be reachable,
since both the >= 64GB and < 64GB case return, so it was removed.
This commit also adds code back for the UV case since it seemed to just
go away without reason in bdee237c and might lead to unexpected change
in behavior.
