I think that truncating the length like this is going to cause a mess
since we don't have the plumbing to report the shorter dedupe length to
userspace.  Granted, this also causes stale data exposure and I don't
want to hold this up for my big long clonerange cleanup to land.

I'll probably end up cleaning up all this into a generic "check these
clone args for block alignment" later anyway, so you might as well go
ahead:
