With the align parameter memblock_alloc_node() can be used as drop in replacement for alloc_bootmem_pages_node().Why do we need an additional translation later? Sparse code which is the only one to use it already uses memblock_alloc_try_nid elsewhere (sparse_mem_map_populate).
It is also used in later patches to replace alloc_bootmem* in several places and most of them explicitly set the alignment.
