If using iomap, the previous check was this:

	unsigned int blkbits = blksize_bits(bdev_logical_block_size(iomap->bdev));
	unsigned int align = iov_iter_alignment(dio->submit.iter);
	...
	if ((pos | length | align) & ((1 << blkbits) - 1))
		return -EINVAL;

And if raw block device, it was this:

	if ((pos | iov_iter_alignment(iter)) &
	    (bdev_logical_block_size(bdev) - 1))
		return -EINVAL;

The result of "iov_iter_alignment()" would include "0xe00 | 0x200" in your
example, and checked against 0xfff should have been failing prior to this
patch. Unless I'm missing something...
