Actually the tst_device binary does not pass a concrete size unless the
shell code that calls it passes an optional parameter, so the fallback
to DEV_SIZE_MB if size == 0 has to stay in the double underscore
function. I will send a v2 that just replaces the second occurence of
MAX() in tst_device.c for now as it looks to me that any singificant
cleanup would require complete redesing of the interface and quite
possibly rewrite of the last 16 tests that use the old API as a
pre-requisite.
