Subject[bisected] QEMU guest boot failure since 6.0 on x86_64 host
Hello,

After upgrading host kernel to 6.0 QEMU 7.0.0 guests can't boot if their
underlying disk image has 4096 byte sectors and cache property set to
"none".

Host kernel:
Linux version 6.0.2 (root@heim.demsh.org) (gcc (Gentoo 11.3.0 p4)
11.3.0, GNU ld (Gentoo 2.38 p4) 2.38) #1 SMP

Bisect led me to commit b1a000d3b8ec5 ("block: relax direct io memory
alignment"). I was unable to resolve revert conflicts when
tried to revert b1a000d3b8ec5 ("block: relax direct io memory
alignment") as I lack necessary understanding of block subsystem.

This fails to boot on 6.0+ host:
# losetup -b 4096 -f image.raw
# qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -drive
file=/dev/loop0,format=raw,cache=none

These boot fine on 6.0+ host:
# losetup -b 4096 -f image.raw
# qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -drive
file=/dev/loop0,format=raw

# losetup -f image.raw
# qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -drive
file=/dev/loop0,format=raw,cache=none

On 5.19 and older kernels the guest boots in all cases above. Problem
reproduces on 6.1-rc1.

What other info I can provide to help to find root cause?
