[U-Boot] [PATCH 3/9] CACHE: ext2load: Test if start address is aligned

[Marek Vasut]

This prevents the scenario where data cache is on and the
device uses DMA to deploy data. In that case, it might not
be possible to flush/invalidate data to RAM properly. The
other option is to use bounce buffer, but that involves a
lot of copying and therefore degrades performance rapidly.
Therefore disallow this possibility of unaligned load address
altogether if data cache is on.
