If you're going to comment I'd prefer a comment that explains why, not

Not all regions have mappings see e820_register_one(), so this is a
divide by zero.
I think this is mixing 2 different constraints. There's the soft
constraint of wanting aliased pmem capacity to remain aligned relative
to blk capacity, and then there's the hard constraint where the kernel
just can't use devm_memremap_pages() for the given capacity alignment.
I think this routine should be called:
nvdimm_validate_geometry()
...and only check for:
if (pmem_should_map_pages() || is_nd_pfn() || is_nd_dax())
...i.e namespaces are mapped by memremap_pages() and compare that
against memremap_compat_align().
