Since commit a6b257a08e3 ('file-posix: Handle undetectable alignment'), we assume that if we open a file with O_DIRECT and alignment probing returns 1, we just couldn't find out the real alignment requirement because some filesystems make the requirement only for allocated blocks. In this case, a safe default of 4k is used. This is too strict for NFS, which does actually allow byte-aligned requests even with O_DIRECT. Because we can't distinguish both cases with generic code, let's just look at the file system magic and disable s->needs_alignment for NFS. This way, O_DIRECT can still be used on NFS for images that are not aligned to 4k.
