[Mono-list] Unable to get block device size in UnixStream

Yes, I need the details without mounting it. Right now I am doing this by
reading /sys/class/block/sda2/size, but that feels so... wrong.
I CAN get the size via FileStream.Length, but not with UnixStream.Length.
Since it has been implemented for FileStream, maybe UnixStream has been
forgotten.

>From strace from blockdevice --getsize:
open("/dev/sda2", O_RDONLY)             = 3
ioctl(3, BLKGETSIZE, 0x7fff98da5750)    = 0

Unfortunately mono has no wrapper for ioctl.
