Is it a good idea to do the "write zeros", instead of a plain "set write
pointer"? I assume setting write pointer is instant, while writing
potentially hundreds of megabytes may take significiant time. As the
functions may be called from random contexts, the increased time may
become a problem.

This could simply accept 0 as the mirror offset too, the calculation is
trivial.

Please move this comment to the helper fill_sb_wp_offset itself, there
it's more discoverable.

Accepting 0 as the mirror number would also get rid of this wild
expression substituting and 'if'.

And get rid of the conditional. The point of supporting both po2 and
nonpo2 is to hide any implementation details to wrappers as much as
possible.
