Before calling add partition or resize partition, there is no check
on whether the length is aligned with the logical block size.
If the logical block size of the disk is larger than 512 bytes,
then the partition size maybe not the multiple of the logical block size,
and when the last sector is read, bio_truncate() will adjust the bio size,
resulting in an IO error if the size of the read command is smaller than
the logical block size.If integrity data is supported, this will also
result in a null pointer dereference when calling bio_integrity_free.

Please add a space after /* and before */.

I would move this check before the "start = ...;" And while at it, I would also
move the check for p.start being aligned out of the "case BLKPG_ADD_PARTITION:"
together with this length alignment check. The p.start check is not needed for
BLKPG_RESIZE_PARTITION, but it will not hurt either.
