  Struct uvc_frame and interval (u32*) are packaged together on
streaming->formats on a single contiguous allocation.

Right now they allocated right after uvc_format, without taking into
consideration their required alignment.

This is working fine because both structures have a field with a
pointer, but it will stop working when the sizeof() of any of those
structs is not a multiple of the sizeof(void*).

Enforce that alignment during the allocation.

This is better than 3 allocations, and do not have any performance
penalty.

I have tried this patch printing the size and the address of the
pointers in the old and the new mode, and it looks the same.

Changes in v2: Thanks Laurent.
- Enforce alignment during allocation instead of using __aligned()
  macros.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230501-uvc-align-v1-1-0f713e4b84c3@chromium.org

You have two extra spaces here. I'll fix when applying.
