Yes. Or more simply, because I was expecting no other uses of
start_sect, cluster_offset and n_start after reading your commit message. :)

The obvious expression would be
s->cluster_sectors
+ (m->nb_available & ~(uint64_t)(s->cluster_sectors - 1))
which is a bit different from align_offset. If m->nb_available is
already aligned, it returns the *next* aligned value rather than
m->nb_available itself.
So the equivalent expression using align_offset would be this one:
align_offset(m->nb_available+1, s->cluster_sectors)
