iio: frequency: adf4350: Fix alignment for DMA safety
[ Upstream commit 389b8972eb2a614cb3189e5fa55b1b7f66142c71 ]
____cacheline_aligned is an insufficient guarantee for non-coherent DMA
on platforms with 128 byte cachelines above L1. Switch to the updated
IIO_DMA_MINALIGN definition.
Updated help text to 'may' require buffers to be in their own cacheline.
