[U-Boot] [RFC] mmc: fsl_esdhc: fix misaligned cache operation warning

When using gzwrite to eMMC on an i.MX6Q board, the following warning
occurs repeatedly:
CACHE: Misaligned operation at range [4fd63318, 4fe63318]

I tried to cache-line align the start and end parameter for
flush_dcache_range in esdhc_setup_data.
(Same approach as in https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/656470/)

After that, the "Misaligned operation" error message disappeared and
everything still works for me.

But is this safe and should I send the patch again with [PATCH] ?
