Oh, missed the lcm(). But I'm still concerned about twiddling io_opt to
a value different than the one reported by an underlying device.

Setting io_opt to something that's less than a full stripe width in a
RAID, for instance, doesn't produce the expected result. So I think I'd
prefer not to set io_opt at all if it isn't consistent across all the
stacked devices.

Let me chew on it for a bit...
