For bdev file operations, a write will be truncated when trying to write
past the end of the device. This could not be tolerated for an atomic
write.
Ensure that the size of the bdev matches max atomic write unit so that this
truncation would never occur.
Fixes: 9da3d1e912f3 ("block: Add core atomic write support")
