All applicable memory regions always have an alignment > 0. All memory
backends result in file_ram_alloc() or qemu_anon_ram_alloc() getting
called, setting the alignment to > 0.

So a PCDIMM memory region always has an alignment > 0. NVDIMM copy the
alignment of the original memory memory region into the handcrafted memory
region that will be used at this place.

So the check for 0 can be dropped and we can reduce the special
handling.

Dropping this check makes factoring out of alignment handling easier as
compat handling only has to look at pcmc->enforce_aligned_dimm and not
care about the alignment of the memory region.
