We add a new configuration CONFIG_SBI_SCRATCH_ALLOC_ALIGNMENT as an int
If it is set to 0 or not defined, we will continue with the previous
defintion of allocating pointer size chunks. Otherwise we will use the
user specified size.
We use the scratch allocation alignment to 64 bytes or cacheline size,
to avoid two atomic variables from the same cache line causing livelock
on some platforms.

Changes in V2:
	Remove platform specific references to 64 bytes in the configuration

Changes in V3:
	Remove platform specific references in 64 bytes in the comments
