[LTP] [PATCH v4 1/3] aio_tio: determine alignment based on target block device

[Matthias Maennich]

The alignment for O_DIRECT operations has to match the blocksize of the
underlying block device. Determine the alignment from the target file.

aio_tio test cases 1 and 2 failed (nondeterministic) on aarch64 when run
on a 4096 byte blocksize and with an alignment of 512 bytes.

Determining the blocksize from the block device and using it for the
alignment resolves the test issue.
