From: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprow...@samsung.com>

The DMA transfer must be aligned to a specific value. If userptr is not aligned
to DMA requirements then unexpected corruptions of the memory may occur before
or after a buffer.  To prevent such situations, all unligned userptr buffers
are rejected at VIDIOC_QBUF.
