| crypto: caam - fix RNG buffer cache alignment
|
| The hwrng output buffers (2) are cast inside of a a struct (caam_rng_ctx)
| allocated in one DMA-tagged region. While the kernel's heap allocator
| should place the overall struct on a cacheline aligned boundary, the 2
| buffers contained within may not necessarily align. Consenquently, the
| ends of unaligned buffers may not fully flush, and if so, stale data will be
| left behind, resulting in small repeating patterns.
|
| This fix aligns the buffers inside the struct.
|
| Note that not all of the data inside caam_rng_ctx necessarily needs to
| be DMA-tagged, only the buffers themselves require this. However, a fix
| would incur the expense of error-handling bloat in the case of allocation
| failure.

instead we will use just dma_alloc()
