You only need quirk entries if the device fails to identify its physical
size correctly.  If "camcontrol identify" states "physical 4096", then
you're probably ok, but it's not the best place to ask.  "camcontrol
identify" asks the device directly, whereas "diskinfo -v" asks the kernel.
If "diskinfo -v" says "4096 stripesize" then you're definitely ok.
