I'm not sure I follow why these two need to be the same. I can see
checking for 'chunk_sectors % boundary_sectors_hw == 0', but am I
missing something else?
The reason I ask, zone block devices redefine the "chunk_sectors" to
mean the zone size, and I'm pretty sure the typical zone size is much
larger than the any common atomic write size.
