Subject: [PATCH 5.18 0593/1095] iio: adc: ad7266: Fix alignment for DMA safety

From: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@...wei.com>

[ Upstream commit b990cdfe7536a8da7e134d516350402981300016 ]

____cacheline_aligned is an insufficient guarantee for non-coherent DMA
on platforms with 128 byte cachelines above L1.  Switch to the updated
IIO_DMA_MINALIGN definition.

Update the comment to reflect that DMA safety 'may' require separate
cachelines.
