[PATCH 4/4] serial: amba-pl011: Respect DMA controller's copy_align requirement

[Kartik Rajput]

Some DMA controllers require transfer lengths to be aligned to a
specific boundary. For example, the Tegra GPC DMA requires 4-byte
(word) aligned transfers and will reject unaligned lengths.

Align the TX DMA buffer length down to the DMA controller's copy_align
boundary before submitting the transfer. Any remaining unaligned bytes
will be transmitted via PIO on subsequent calls, which is the existing
fallback behavior when DMA is not used.
