It does handle it, in a way, but the way it handles it is to erase more
blocks than requested if the request isn't aligned. In your example, you
requested the "test" partition to be erased (0x300 to 0x3ff), but what was
actually erased (as printed in the "Caution" message from mmc_berase) was
0x0 to 0x7ff.

If I remove your alignment logic, then it produces:

Except that this one has now erased 0x0 to 0x300 and 0x400 to 0x7ff also,
which you did not want to erase, right?
Aligning the start address is meant to protect this data from being erased
unintentionally. The trade-off is that some small partitions won't get
erased at all, if they are too small and not aligned.
