Subject: [PATCH 4.6 01/56] libnvdimm, dax: record the specified alignment of a dax-device instance

4.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@...el.com>

commit 45a0dac0451136fa7ae34a6fea53ef6a136287ce upstream.

We want to use the alignment as the allocation and mapping unit.
Previously this information was only useful for establishing the data
offset, but now it is important to remember the granularity for the
later use.
