dm crypt: allow unaligned bv_offset
When slub_debug is enabled kmalloc returns unaligned memory. XFS uses
this unaligned memory for its buffers (if an unaligned buffer crosses a
page, XFS frees it and allocates a full page instead - see the function
xfs_buf_allocate_memory).
dm-crypt checks if bv_offset is aligned on page size and these checks
fail with slub_debug and XFS.
Fix this bug by removing the bv_offset checks. Switch to checking if
bv_len is aligned instead of bv_offset (this check should be sufficient
to prevent overruns if a bio with too small bv_len is received).
Fixes: 8f0009a22517 ("dm crypt: optionally support larger encryption sector size")
