Can endptr even be NULL? Also, shouldn't you set errno = 0 before and
check it here?

s->padding is unsigned int, pad is unsigned long. Why the cast to
uint32_t here, which is different from both?

No check needed here? bdrv_check_request() has checked sector_num and
nb_sectors against the image size, but now you can't rely on the result
any more.
