According to the XDMA datasheet (PG195), the address of any descriptor must be 32 byte aligned. The datasheet also states that a contiguous block of descriptors must not cross a 4k address boundary. Therefore, it is possible to ease the pressure put on the dma_pool allocator just by requiring sufficient alignment and boundary values. Add proper macro definition and change the values passed into the dma_pool_create().
