From 047e0eff1f150220d615c35c36af225f3e1ed057 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" Date: Thu, 5 Sep 2019 21:16:01 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] libnvdimm/label: Remove the dpa align check There's no strict requirement why slot_valid() needs to check for page alignment and it would seem to actively hurt cross-page-size compatibility. Let's delete the check and rely on checksum validation.
