Got it. Are you thinking a kernel_doc on top of the variable above, or preferably on top
of pgmap_align()?

I suppose a converter between devmap_geometry and page_size would be needed too? And maybe
the whole dax/nvdimm align values change meanwhile (as a followup improvement)?

Although to be fair we only ever care about compound page size in this series (and
similarly dax/nvdimm @align properties).

@pfn_align is in pages too. It's pgmap_align() which is in bytes:

+static inline unsigned long pgmap_pfn_align(struct dev_pagemap *pgmap)
+{
+       return PHYS_PFN(pgmap_align(pgmap));
+}
