dm crypt: allow unaligned bv_offset
When slub_debug is enabled kmalloc returns unaligned memory. XFS uses this unaligned memory for its buffers (if an unaligned buffer crosses a page, XFS frees it and allocates a full page instead - see the function xfs_buf_allocate_memory). dm-crypt checks if bv_offset is aligned on page size and these checks fail with slub_debug and XFS. Fix this bug by removing the bv_offset checks. Switch to checking if bv_len is aligned instead of bv_offset (this check should be sufficient to prevent overruns if a bio with too small bv_len is received).
