Bleh, knew I forgot to do something.

The alignment of a DAX and PFN regions dictates the page sizes that can be used to map the region. Even if the hardware page sizes are known the actual range of supported page sizes that can be used with DAX depends on the kernel configuration. As a result its best that the kernel advertises the alignments that should be used with these region types. This patch adds the 'supported_alignments' region attribute to expose this information to userspace.
