The alignment constraint is defined in the CSM specifications as
"Bit mapped.  First non-zero bit from the right is the alignment."

Use __fls() to sanitise the alignment given that definition, since
passing a non-power-of-two alignment to _malloc() isn't going to work
well. And cope with being passed zero, which was happening for the
E820 table allocation from EDK2.
