[PATCH v2] eal: Pointer alignment check improvements

["Morten Brørup" <mb@smartsharesystems.com>]

Checking a const pointer for alignment would emit a warning about the
const qualifier being discarded.

No need to calculate the aligned pointer; just check the last bits of the
pointer.

v2:
- Remove compiler attribute ((const)) from function;
  it was a coding style issue.
