Drivers: hv: balloon: Permit Linux to specify hot-add alignment requirements

Some Windows hosts permit the guest to specify memory hot-add alignment
requirements (if any). Linux currently requires a 128MB alignment on memory
segments that can be hot-added. Specify this alignment requirement to the
host.
