dax: fix O_DIRECT I/O to the last block of a blockdev
commit bbab37ddc20b (block: Add support for DAX reads/writes to
block devices) caused a regression in mkfs.xfs. That utility
sets the block size of the device to the logical block size
using the BLKBSZSET ioctl, and then issues a single sector read
from the last sector of the device. This results in the dax_io
code trying to do a page-sized read from 512 bytes from the end
of the device. The result is -ERANGE being returned to userspace.
The fix is to align the block to the page size before calling
get_block.
Thanks to willy for simplifying my original patch.
