IIUC, zero pading would work too.

This makes me confused. get_block() return zero on success, right?
Why the var called 'lenght'?

So, are you rely on pure luck to make get_block() allocate 2M aligned pfn?
Not really productive. You would need assistance from fs and
arch_get_unmapped_area() sides.
