[PULL 1/3] hv-balloon: use get_min_alignment() to express 32 GiB alignment
Posted by David Hildenbrand 9 months, 3 weeks ago
Let's implement the get_min_alignment() callback for memory devices, and
copy for the device memory region the alignment of the host memory
region. This mimics what virtio-mem does, and allows for re-introducing
proper alignment checks for the memory region size (where we don't care
about additional device requirements) in memory device core.
