We can enable byte aligned transfers on the DMA controller. This is
what I came up with yesterday:
(sorry for wrapped lines - the proper patch should probably be a
combination of both
warning/DALGN handling and and moving something in mmc_card around).

Subject: [PATCH] pxamci: fix byte aligned DMA transfers

The pxa27x DMA controller defaults to 64-bit alignment. This caused
the SCR reads to fail (and, depending on card type, error out) when
card->raw_scr was not aligned on a 8-byte boundary.

I think for performance reasons all scatter-gather addresses passed
to pxamci_request should be aligned on 8-byte boundaries, but right
now enabling byte aligned DMA transfers in the controller fixes those
problems.
