[PATCH 2/8] mm/memory: add memory_block_align_range() helper

[Gregory Price]

Memory hotplug operations require ranges aligned to memory block
boundaries.  This is a generic operation for hotplug.

Add memory_block_align_range() as a common helper in <linux/memory.h>
that aligns the start address up and end address down to memory block
boundaries.

Update dax/kmem to use this helper.
