[PATCH] DM RAID: Ensure the bitmap region_size is a power of 2

DM RAID:  Ensure the bitmap region_size is a power of 2

If the user does not supply a region_size, a reasonable size is computed
automatically.  However, region_size needs to be a power of 2 and the
code was not properly ensuring that.
