dm stripe: fix size test
dm-stripe is supposed to ensure that all the space allocated to the stripes is fully used and that all stripes are the same size. This patch fixes the test. It checks that device length is divisible by the chunk size and checks that the resulting quotient is divisible by the number of stripes (which is equivalent to testing if device length is divisible by chunk_size * stripes). Previously, the code only tested that the number of sectors in the target was divisible by each of the chunk size and the number of stripes separately, which could leave entire stripes unused. (A setup that genuinely needs some stripes to be shorter than others can be created by concatenating striped targets.)
