genalloc: Correct nbytes calculation on long boundary
Sunil Khatri authored 

In existing code we calculate nbytes based on the byte
boundary, but genalloc uses bitmap for maintaining the
memory allocation aligned to long. So while calculating
nbytes we end up getting wrong nbytes.
example: lets say nbytes comes to 9 bytes for 70 bits when
bytes aligned,but if long aligned we will have 3 long words
i.e 12 bytes. This difference may lead to choosing the
wrong api for freeing the memory i.e Between kfree() and
vfree().
Fix was inspired by an upstream commit
eedce141cd2dad8d0cefc5468ef41898949a7031, bringing same fix
into the gen_pool_detroy path.
