The in-tree ublk driver doesn't need DMA alignment limit because there is one data copy between request pages and the userspace buffer. However, ublk is going to support zero copy, then DMA alignment limit is required, because same IO buffer is forwarded to backend which may have specific buffer DMA alignment limit, so the limit has to be exposed from the frontend driver to client application.
