They should be 65536 for WPcom and 979 for LZone, but I don't think that
is going to solve everything. When I had the same hd I got the same
messages (though usually the second, rarely the first). They're pretty
harmless, but if they annoy you, simply comment them out in
kernel/blk_drv/hd.c and recompile the kernel.
