ALSA: memalloc: Align buffer allocations in page size
Currently the standard memory allocator (snd_dma_malloc_pages*()) passes the byte size to allocate as is. Most of the backends allocates real pages, hence the actual allocations are aligned in page size. However, the genalloc doesn't seem assuring the size alignment, hence it may result in the access outside the buffer when the whole memory pages are exposed via mmap. For avoiding such inconsistencies, this patch makes the allocation size always to be aligned in page size. Note that, after this change, snd_dma_buffer.bytes field contains the aligned size, not the originally requested size. This value is also used for releasing the pages in return.
