The three DMA memory regions allocated for the host memory space is
documented to require alignment of 128, 1024 and 1024 respectively, but
the returned address is checked for PAGE_SIZE alignment.

In the case these allocations are serviced by e.g. the Arm SMMU, the
size and alignment will be determined by its supported page sizes. In
most cases SZ_4K and a few larger sizes are available.

In the typical configuration this does not cause problems, but in the
event that the system PAGE_SIZE is increased beyond 4k, it's no longer
reasonable to expect that the allocation will be PAGE_SIZE aligned.

Limit the DMA alignment check to the actual alignment requirements
written in the comments in the code, to avoid the UFS core refusing to
initialize with such configuration.
