Dan Williams fe9a643157 isci: pad stp and smp request sizes 
Ross says:
 "The memory allocation for these requests doesn’t take into account the
  additional memory needed when the code in
  scic_sds_s[mst]p_request_assign_buffers() shifts the struct
  scu_task_context so that it is cache line aligned:

  In an example from my machine, total buffer that I’ve given to SCIC goes
  from 0x410024566f84 to 0x410024567308.  From this same example, this
  call shifts my task_context_buffer from 0x410024567208 to
  0x410024567240.

  This means that the task_context_buffer that used to range from
  0x410024567208 to 0x410024567308 instead now goes from 0x410024567240 to
  0x410024567340.

  When the memset() call at the end of scic_task_request_construct()
  clears out this task_context_buffer, it does so from 0x410024567240 to
  0x410024567340, effectively killing whatever buffer follows this
  allocation in memory."

djbw:
Use the kernel's PTR_ALIGN instead of
scic_sds_request_align_task_context_buffer() and SMP_CACHE_BYTES instead of
the local CACHE_LINE_SIZE definition.

TODO: These allocations really want to be better defined in a union rather
than opaque buffers carved up by macros.
