ALIGN() only works correctly if the alignment is a power of two. Some drivers
use 3 bytes for the storage size of the word in which case ALIGN() will cause
incorrect results. Use the more generic roundup() instead.

This at least makes the rules for alignment predictable and consistent. But
mixing 3 bytes words with other word sizes will still result in strange layouts.
E.g. 4-byte word, 3-byte word will result in 4-byte word, 2-byte alignment gap,
3-byte word.
