Hum, yeah, it is a change in behavior, I was too focused on the next
patch (where the new mode can't be used with -b option).

This patch was an attempt at simplifying.
Since there is a risk some user may have relied on this combination
(iow some user setting -a busA:XXX yet relying on block mode for other
buses), I'll just drop it and return to how it was in RFC v3.
