[PATCH] dm unstripe: Fix target length versus number of stripes size check.

[PATCH] dm unstripe: Fix target length versus number of stripes size check.

[Scott Bauer]

Since the unstripe target takes a target length which is the
size of *one* striped member we're trying to expose, not the
total size of *all* the striped members the check does not
make sense and fails for some striped setups.

For example, say we have a 4TB striped device:
or 3907018496 sectors per underlying device:

if (sector_div(width, uc->stripes)) :
   3907018496 / 2(num stripes)  == 1953509248;

tmp_len = width;
if (sector_div(tmp_len, uc->chunk_size)) {
   1953509248 / 256(chunk size) == 7630895.5;
   (fails)

This patch removes the first check which isn't valid for un striping.
