[PATCH] device-mapper: list_versions fix
In some circumstances the LIST_VERSIONS output is truncated because the size calculation forgets about a 'uint32_t' in each structure - but the inclusion of the whole of ALIGN_MASK frequently compensates for the omission. This is a quick workaround to use an upper bound. (The code ought to be fixed to supply the actual size.) Running 'dmsetup targets' may demonstrate the problem: when I run it, the last line comes out as 'erro' instead of 'error'. Consequently, 'lvcreate --type error' doesn't work.
