I think there is no real requirement to use the object size here, this
is only the buffer size for some bdrv_read/write calls, which works fine
in smaller chunks.

So you could still allow block_size_shift up to 31, but use a different
number here. Perhaps always leaving it at 4 MB is good enough, otherwise
you could use something like MIN(24, base->inode.block_size_shift).

I suggest limiting the maximum buffer size as above so that a failure
becomes unlikely, and using g_try_malloc() to handle any allocation
failure that occurs anyway gracefully.
