I did mean that it could not pad too much. When stripesize is zero the
stripeoffset points to real offset from the beginning of device.
In case when we have nested partitioning schemes like MBR + BSD,
stripeoffset of BSD slice could help align partition to the device.

The problem that Kris reported was not here.
I think this change is just for the reassurance.
