[dm-devel] [PATCH] dm: Fix alignment stacking on partitioned devices

The dm device limits function passes the start sector within the block
device to the block layer stacking function.  However, the partition's
offset on the physical device is not added, resulting in incorrect
alignment reporting.

Add the partition offset to the values passed to blk_stack_limits().
