And where do you account for this so that we know whether it's really in
effect?

I don't think this is proper use of IS_ENABLED, which seems to be
targeted at CONFIG_ type options. You could define this as that in an
arch Kconfig.

Doesn't this seem rather redundant with the option right above it,
resource_alignment=? Why not modify that to support syntax where all
devices get the same alignment?

Since we already have resource_alignment=, shouldn't we already have the
code in place to re-align?
