I'm surprised that you need this as the common code in md is supposed
to round everything th chunk_size...
However I found a bug that it was still assuming power-of-2 for v1.x
metadata.
So I fixed that.
Then I decide that it is best to do the rounding in the personalities
- most of them do already.
So I added rounding code to linear and raid0

http://neil.brown.name/git?p=md;a=commitdiff;h=c9aaceea6015213e571761c0f0899614863c4868

and then removed all the related code from md.c

It is all in my for-next.

thanks,
NeilBrown
