Please name this ALIGN_UP() so that it is clear it aligns x up and not
down.

I think it would be good to be consistent about how the library hands
out and initializes objects. e.g. For devices we have:
device = vfio_pci_device_init(...);
vfio_pci_device_cleanup(device);
So for allocator it would be:
allocator = iova_allocator_init();
iova_allocator_cleanup(allocator);
It's a small thing, but this way users of the library can always work
with pointers allocated by the library, there is a consistent meaning of
*_init() functions, and one doesn't have to distinguish between
*_deinit() and *_cleanup().
Forcing dynamic memory allocation is less efficient, but I think
simplicity and consistency matters more when it comes to tests.

ALIGN() is what requires size to be a power of 2, so the assert should
probably go inside that macro.

I found this loop a bit hard to read. The if statements have 3-4
statements, and idx and range are managed deep in the loop. What about
something like this? It also avoids the need to check for overflow
(unless I missed something :).
