[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915: Quietly reject attempts to create non-pagealigned stolen objects

This added as a BUG_ON as it considered that no one would ever request
an unaligned object. However, it turns out that some BIOSes will
allocate a scanout that is offset from 0 and not aligned to a page
boundary, and we were passing this through and hitting the BUG_ON during
boot.

Quietly reject such a request to reserve the unaligned stolen object and
let the boot continue, restoring previous behaviour (i.e. no BIOS
framebuffer preservation).
