blkio_alloc_mem_region() requires that the requested buffer size is a
multiple of the memory-alignment property. If it isn't, the allocation
fails with a return value of -EINVAL.
Fix the call in blkio_resize_bounce_pool() to make sure the requested
size is properly aligned.
I observed this problem with vhost-vdpa, which requires page aligned
memory. As the virtio-blk device behind it still had 512 byte blocks, we
got bs->bl.request_alignment = 512, but actually any request that needed
a bounce buffer and was not aligned to 4k would fail without this fix.
