If I'm correct enough, it breaks existing application using this interface. "noresize"
would be a optinal parallel property to "align". So the string would have below format
if nobody else objects:

order,noresize@domain:bus:slot.func

It could be something like below if you like:

r->start = max(align, size);
r->end = r->start + size - 1;
