From: Nikita Leshchenko <nikita.leshche...@oracle.com>
When mpt-scsi receives a SCSI message, it wraps it in a MPT request
message and writes it's address to an IO port to be added to the
request queue.
This MPT request is allocated on the stack. Previous to this commit,
the request is aligned to 4 bytes. However, VirtualBox LSI53c1030
device emulation aligns the request address to 8 bytes.
Therefore, this commit change alignment of request to 8 bytes.
VirtualBox source code which handles this is at
Devices/Storage/DevLsiLogicSCSI.cpp. lsilogicRegisterWrite()
LSILOGIC_REG_REQUEST_QUEUE handler adds the request to the
queue (pRequestQueueBase). lsilogicR3Worker() reads request from
pRequestQueueBase and aligns it to 8 bytes
(u32RequestMessageFrameDesc & ~0x07).
