This doesn't need if else if else if and it doesn't need to check
for exact unit min/max matches.

This is fastpath code, and I thought it quicker to just check if min/max first. Based on recent discussions, for FS support I expect typically len == unit_max.

But I can change to your simpler checking and later change to the current method if those FS assumptions hold true.

The exact matches require the
length to be a power of 2, so the checks are simply:

	if (len < unit_min || len > unit_max)
		return false;
	if (!is_power_of_2(len))
		return false;

+	if (pos & (len - 1))
+		return false;
This has typing issues - 64 bit value, 32 bit mask. probably should
use:

	if (!IS_ALIGNED(pos, len))
		return false;

ok, good idea.

Thanks,
John
