libnvdimm, dax: fix alignment validation
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.
