[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v7 3/5] hash: fix key store element alignment

Fix the key store array element alignment such that every array
element is aligned on KEY_ALIGNMENT boundary. This is required to
make 'pdata' in 'struct rte_hash_key' align on its natural boundary
for atomic load/store.

Fixes: 473d1bebce43 ("hash: allow to store data in hash table")
