[PATCH 14/20] dma: allocate 32-byte aligned buffers by default

[Ahmad Fatoum <a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>]

If dma_alloc() is really used for streaming-dma between cache-incoherent
masters, it should return cache-line aligned buffers, so we don't risk
invalidating shared cache lines. Bump up the default alignment to 32-bytes.

This doesn't affect ARM, as it defines its own implementation with
64-byte buffers.
