Aligning the buffer to the L1 cache is not sufficient in some platforms as they might have larger cacheline sizes for caches after L1 and thus, we can't guarantee DMA safety. That was the whole reason to introduce IIO_DMA_MINALIGN in [1]. Do the same for st_sensors common buffer. While at it, moved the odr_lock before buffer_data as we definitely don't want any other data to share a cacheline with the buffer.
