Is there a reason why you chose to not incorporate the helper function
that I suggested here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/ZzMtKUFi30_o6SwL@ryzen/

I didn't see any reply from you to that message.

Personally I think that it is nice to have the alignment code in a single
function, rather than duplicating the code. The helper also looks quite
similar to how we do outbound address translation alignment:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pci/pci.git/commit/?h=endpoint&id=e73ea1c2d4d8f7ba5daaf7aa51171f63cf79bcd8
so that people will recognize the pattern more easily.

But I guess you didn't like my suggestion?
(Which is fine, but I would have expected some motivation.)


Kind regards,
Niklas
