mlxsw: Make mailboxes 4KB aligned
The HW-SW contract requires mailboxes passed to the firmware to be 4KB aligned. Previously, these mailboxes were mapped using streaming DMA routines, which do not guarantee the bus addresses to be 4KB aligned. Under certain conditions this constraint was indeed violated and errors were observed. By using consistent DMA mapping routines together with a mailbox size of 4KB we are guaranteed not to violate the constraint.
