Ming Lei e84025d2a9 ublk: add DMA alignment limit
The in-tree ublk driver doesn't need DMA alignment limit because there
is one data copy between request pages and the userspace buffer.

However, ublk is going to support zero copy, then DMA alignment limit
is required, because same IO buffer is forwarded to backend which may
have specific buffer DMA alignment limit, so the limit has to be exposed
from the frontend driver to client application.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
