ARM: PL08x: ensure pl08x_pre_boundary() works for any value of addr

pl08x_pre_boundary() was unsafe with addresses towards the top of
memory space:

	boundary = ((addr >> PL08X_BOUNDARY_SHIFT) + 1)
			<< PL08X_BOUNDARY_SHIFT;

This can overflow a 32-bit number, producing zero.  When it does:

	if (boundary < addr + len)
		return boundary - addr;
	else
		return len;

results in (boundary - addr) returning either a large positive value.
Also if addr + len overflows, this calculation also fails.

We can fix this trivially as the only thing we're actually interested
in is the value of the least significant PL08X_BOUNDARY_SHIFT bits:

	boundary_len = PL08X_BOUNDARY_SIZE -
		(addr & (PL08X_BOUNDARY_SIZE - 1));

gives us the number of bytes before 'addr' becomes a multiple of
PL08X_BOUNDARY_SIZE.  We can then just take the min() of the two
calculated lengths.
