I feel like this should be split into multiple patches: one patch that
introduces blk_crypto_bio_sectors_alignment(), and a patch for each place that
needs to take blk_crypto_bio_sectors_alignment() into account.

It would also help to give a real-world example of why support for
data_unit_size > logical_block_size is needed. E.g. ext4 or f2fs encryption
with a 4096-byte filesystem block size, using eMMC inline encryption hardware
that has logical_block_size=512.

Also, is this needed even without the fscrypt direct I/O support? If so, it
should be sent out separately.

'max_sectors - start_offset >= bio_sectors_alignment' looks wrong, as
'max_sectors - start_offset' underflows if 'max_sectors < start_offset'.

Maybe consider something like the below?

static inline unsigned get_max_io_size(struct request_queue *q,
struct bio *bio)
{
unsigned sectors = blk_max_size_offset(q, bio->bi_iter.bi_sector);
unsigned pbs = queue_physical_block_size(q) >> SECTOR_SHIFT;
unsigned lbs = queue_logical_block_size(q) >> SECTOR_SHIFT;
sector_t pb_aligned_sector =
round_down(bio->bi_iter.bi_sector + sectors, pbs);

lbs = max(lbs, blk_crypto_bio_sectors_alignment(bio));

if (pb_aligned_sector >= bio->bi_iter.bi_sector + lbs)
sectors = pb_aligned_sector - bio->bi_iter.bi_sector;

return round_down(sectors, lbs);
}

Maybe it would be useful to have a helper function bio_required_alignment() that
returns the crypto data unit size if the bio has an encryption context, and the
logical block size if it doesn't?

This part is pretty complex. Are you sure it's needed? How was alignment to
logical_block_size ensured before?

This can be one line:

sectors = round_down(sectors, blk_crypto_bio_sectors_alignment(bio));
