[PATCH] bus: mhi: host: Add alignment check for event ring read pointer

From: Krishna chaitanya chundru

Though we do check the event ring read pointer by "is_valid_ring_ptr"
to make sure it is in the buffer range, but there is another risk the
pointer may be not aligned. Since we are expecting event ring elements
are 128 bits(struct mhi_tre) aligned, an unaligned read pointer could lead
to multiple issues like DoS or ring buffer memory corruption.

So add a alignment check for event ring read pointer.
