boot: extlinux: Fix unaligned buffer for reading data from file system

extlinux_read_bootflow() allocates a buffer to read from file system
without any alignment.

But for some block devices which transfer data via DMA, ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN
alignment is required. For example, due to misaligned buffer, the below
boot failure is observed.

=> boot
CACHE: Misaligned operation at range [9efa25f8, 9efa27f8]
CACHE: Misaligned operation at range [9efa25f8, 9efa27f8]
CACHE: Misaligned operation at range [9efa25f8, 9efa27f8]
CACHE: Misaligned operation at range [9efa25f8, 9efa27f8]
** Booting bootflow 'mmc@2194000.bootdev.part_1' with extlinux
Ignoring unknown command: �D���D��
Boot failed (err=-14)

Change the buffer alignment to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN.
