Subject: scsi: use dma_get_cache_alignment() as minimum DMA alignment
Git-commit: 90addc6b3c9cda0146fbd62a08e234c2b224a80c
Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc3
References: git-fixes bsc#1118139

In non-coherent DMA mode, kernel uses cache flushing operations to
maintain I/O coherency, so scsi's block queue should be aligned to the
value returned by dma_get_cache_alignment().  Otherwise, If a DMA buffer
and a kernel structure share a same cache line, and if the kernel
structure has dirty data, cache_invalidate (no writeback) will cause
data corruption.
