[dm-devel] [PATCH] dm-raid: fix default region size

The commit 3a0f9aaee02857609d79b20c809c02a8b7c39d06 should make sure that
the default region size is a power of two. However, the logic is incorrect
and sets the variable region_size to 0 or 1, depending on whether
min_region_size is a power of two.

This patch fixes the logic, so that region_size is set to min_region_size
rounded up to the next power of two.
