The auto-alignment was re-introduced back, allowing existing guests + to keep running as usual. But now, instead of auto-aligning in a transparent + manner, it is also changing the domain XML. This brings a good balance + between consistency of domain XML and guest information, and also relieves + the user of knowing the alignment internals of pSeries NVDIMMs. + * **Bug fixes** -- 2.26.2
