In the alignment check added to qemu_ram_alloc_from_fd() in commit
ce317be98db0dfdfa, the condition includes a check that 'mr' is not
NULL.  This check is unnecessary because we can assume that the
caller always passes us a valid MemoryRegion, and indeed later in the
function we assume mr is not NULL when we pass it to file_ram_alloc()
as new_block->mr.  Remove it.

Fixes: Coverity 1459867
Fixes: ce317be98d ("exec: fetch the alignment of Linux devdax pmem character 
device nodes")
