cmd/fdt.c align data buffer to avoid unaligned word access
Since the compiler is free to place a char array to any address in memory (in this case the stack), also to a non word aligned address the function "fdt_prop_parse" runs into troubles upon it wants to write some (fdt32_t *) to such a variable (if it has been placed to a none word aligned address). To avoid this we tell the compiler to always align this scratchpad to a word aligned address.
