[PATCH 4/4] PCI: Add support for enforcing all MMIO BARs to be page aligned

When vfio passthrough a PCI device of which MMIO BARs are
smaller than PAGE_SIZE, guest will not handle the mmio
accesses to the BARs which leads to mmio emulations in host.

This is because vfio will not allow to passthrough one BAR's
mmio page which may be shared with other BARs. Otherwise,
there will be a backdoor that guest can use to access BARs
of other device.

To solve this performance issue, this patch modifies 
resource_alignment to support syntax where multiple devices 
get the same alignment. So we can use something like
"pci=resource_alignment=*:*:*.*:noresize" to enforce the
alignment of all MMIO BARs to be at least PAGE_SIZE so that
one BAR's mmio page would not be shared with other BARs.

And we also define a macro PCIBIOS_MIN_ALIGNMENT to enable this
automatically on PPC64 platform which can easily hit this issue
because its PAGE_SIZE is 64KB.
