dm snapshot: allow chunk size to be less than page size
Allow the snapshot chunk size to be smaller than the page size The code is now capable of handling this due to some previous fixes and enhancements. As the page size varies between computers, prior to this patch, the chunk size of a snapshot dictated which machines could read it: Snapshots created on one machine might not be readable on another.
