Revert "hw/block/pflash_cfi: Error out if dev length isn't power of 2"
Commit 334c388f25 ("pflash_cfi: Error out if device length
isn't a power of two") aimed to finish the effort started by
commit 06f1521795 ("pflash: Require backend size to match device,
improve errors"), but unfortunately we are not quite there since
various machines are still ready to accept incomplete / oversized
pflash backend images, and now fail, i.e. on Debian bullseye:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 \
-drive \
if=pflash,format=raw,unit=0,readonly=on,file=/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.fd
qemu-system-x86_64: Device size must be a power of two.
where OVMF_CODE.fd comes from the ovmf package, which doesn't
pad the firmware images to the flash size:
$ ls -lh /usr/share/OVMF/
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3.5M Aug 19 2021 OVMF_CODE_4M.fd
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.9M Aug 19 2021 OVMF_CODE.fd
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 128K Aug 19 2021 OVMF_VARS.fd
Since we entered the freeze period to prepare the v7.2.0 release,
the safest is to revert commit 334c388f25707a234c4a0dea05b9df08d.
