PATCH 1/1 pxamci: fix byte aligned DMA transfers

The pxa27x DMA controller defaults to 64-bit alignment. This caused the SCR reads to fail (and, depending on card type, error out) when card->raw_scr was not aligned on a 8-byte boundary.

For performance reasons all scatter-gather addresses passed to pxamci_request should be aligned on 8-byte boundaries, but if this can't be guaranteed, byte aligned DMA transfers in the have to be enabled in the controller to get correct behaviour.
