    edac: rewrite edac_align_ptr() · 93e4fe64
    Mauro Carvalho Chehab authored
    The edac_align_ptr() function is used to prepare data for a single
    memory allocation kzalloc() call. It counts how many bytes are needed
    by some data structure.
    
    Using it as-is is not that trivial, as the quantity of memory elements
    reserved is not there, but, instead, it is on a next call.
    
    In order to avoid mistakes when using it, move the number of allocated
    elements into it, making easier to use it.
