commit c749046a54d983f74f8156c0aea71b0995b9477d
Author: Brian C. Lane <bcl at redhat.com>

    default to 1MiB alignment when possible
    
    Change the linux_get_optimum_alignment() function to prefer
    aligning partitions to PED_DEFAULT_ALIGNMENT (1MiB), if possible.
    This helps tools like anaconda better support 4k sector drives.
    
    * include/parted/parted.h (PED_DEFAULT_ALIGNMENT): Define.
    * libparted/arch/linux.c (linux_get_optimum_alignment): Adjust.
    See comments for details.
    * libparted/device.c (ped_device_get_optimum_alignment): Use
    PED_DEFAULT_ALIGNMENT rather than hard-coded 1048576.
    * tests/t9020-alignment.sh: Adjust expectations to match new behavior.
    See http://bugzilla.redhat.com/618255 for details.
