[PATCH] Introducing kernel option to force all PCI memory resources to be page aligned. Fixes issues with uio based drivers.

["Koehrer Mathias (ETAS/ESW5)" <mathias.koehrer@etas.com>]

Some uio based PCI drivers (e.g. uio_cif) do not work if the assigned 
PCI memory resources are not page aligned.
By using the kernel option "pci=resource_alignment" it is possible to force
single PCI boards to use page alignment for their memory resources.
However, this is fairly cumbersome if multiple of these cards are in use.
This patch adds another kernel option "pci=resources_page_aligned"
that allows to set the default alignment of PCI memory resources to
be page aligned.
Overwriting of this default alignment via "pci=resource_alignment" is
still possible.
