I'm not sure why that commit was put in as it appears to be redundant.
The old code punted to device.c, which had a 1 MiB default already.
>From ped_device_get_optimum_alignment:
/* Align to a grain of 1MiB (like vista / win7) */
align = ped_alignment_new(0,
1048576 / dev->sector_size);
In fact, I have had a patch pending for some time now to correct that
commit, which wrongly uses a 1 MiB alignment when the underlying device
requests a larger alignment that is not an even power of two.
