Currently part_efi.c allocates buffers for the gpt_header, the
legacy_mbr, and the pte (partition table entry) that may be
incorrectly aligned for DMA operations.
This patch uses ALLOC_CACHE_ALIGN_BUFFER for the stack allocated
buffers and memalign to replace the malloc of the pte.

Mflash is fusion memory device mainly targeted consumer eletronic and
mobile phone.
Internally, it have nand flash and other hardware logics and supports
some different operation (ATA, IO, XIP) modes.
IO mode is custom mode for the host that doesn't have IDE interface.
(Many mobile targeted SoC doesn't have IDE bus)
This driver support mflash IO mode.
Followings are brief descriptions about IO mode.
1. IO mode based on ATA protocol and uses some custom command. (read
confirm, write confirm)
2. IO mode uses SRAM bus interface.

The ending LBA is inclusive. Hence, the partition size should be
((ending-LBA + 1) - starting-LBA) to get the proper partition size.
This is confirmed against the results from the parted tool.
(e.g. use parted /dev/sda -s unit S print) and observe the size.
