[media] vivi: vivi_dev->line[] was not aligned

Though dev->line[] is u8 array we work with it as with u16, u24 or u32
pixels, and also pass it to memcpy() and it's better to align it to at
least 4.
Before the patch, on x86 offsetof(vivi_dev, line) was 1003 and after
patch it is 1004.
There is slight performance increase, but I think is is slight, only
because we start copying not from line[0]:
    ---- 8< ---- drivers/media/platform/vivi.c
    static void vivi_fillbuff(struct vivi_dev *dev, struct vivi_buffer *buf)
    {
            ...
            for (h = 0; h < hmax; h++)
                    memcpy(vbuf + h * wmax * dev->pixelsize,
                           dev->line + (dev->mv_count % wmax) * dev->pixelsize,
                           wmax * dev->pixelsize);
