Wouldn't it be more user-friendly if this check would be left out? Does any code
depend on max_copy_bytes being a multiple of the logical block size?

In block layer, we use max_copy_bytes to split larger copy into
device supported copy size.
Simple copy spec requires length to be logical block size aligned.
Hence this check.

Will blkdev_copy_sanity_check() reject invalid copy requests even if this
check is left out?

Thanks,

Bart.
