Message-ID<rAjnX-mm-7@gated-at.bofh.it>
Now that the base device-DAX implementation is settling I am circling
back to further flesh out the ndctl unit tests.  These 2 fixes fell out
as a result.

#1403359 — [PATCH 2/2] libnvdimm, dax: fix alignment validation

In reply to#1403358
Testing the dax-device autodetect support revealed a probe failure with
the following result:

    dax0.1: bad offset: 0x8200000 dax disabled

The original pfn-device implementation inferred the alignment from
ilog2(offset), now that the alignment is explicit the is_power_of_2()
needs replacing with a real sanity check against the recorded alignment.
Otherwise the alignment check is useless in the implicit case and only
the minimum size of the offset matters.

This self-consistency check is further validated by the probe path that
will re-check that the offset is large enough to contain all the
metadata required to enable the device.
