Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] dma-contiguous: do not overwrite align in dma_alloc_contiguous()

The dma_alloc_contiguous() limits align at CONFIG_CMA_ALIGNMENT for
cma_alloc() however it does not restore it for the fallback routine.
This will result in a size mismatch between the allocation and free
when running into the fallback routines after cma_alloc() fails, if
the align is larger than CONFIG_CMA_ALIGNMENT.

This patch adds a cma_align to take care of cma_alloc() and prevent
the align from being overwritten.

Fixes: fdaeec198ada ("dma-contiguous: add dma_{alloc,free}_contiguous() helpers")
