[PATCH v4] staging: rtl8723bs: remove redundant rsp_allocated_buf

[Devansh Soni <devanshsoni874@gmail.com>]

The original code allocated extra memory and manually aligned the
rsp_buf pointer to a 4-byte boundary, however kzalloc() guarantees a
minimum of 8-byte alignment so this was unnecessary.

Also, because the pointer was shifted, the original pointer had to be
stored in rsp_allocated_buf just so it could be passed to kfree() later.

Remove the redundant alignment math, remove the extra 4 bytes of padding
from kzalloc() call, and assign memory directly to rsp_buf.

This allows us to remove the rsp_allocated_buf variable from cmd_priv
struct.

Changes in v4:
- Dropped PTR_ALIGN() entirely as kzalloc() 8-byte alignment is sufficient.
- Removed the +4 byte padding from kzalloc().
- Completely removed the rsp_allocated_buf tracking variable and updated kfree().

Changes in v3:
- Replaced manual bitwise math with PTR_ALIGN() macro based on feedback from v1.
- Updated commit message to detail kzalloc() 8-byte alignment guarantees.

Changes in v2:
- Wrapped commit log text to resolve line length issue noted by Greg.
