ALIGN() expects its second argument to be a power of 2, otherwise
incorrect results are produced for some inputs. The output can be
both larger or smaller than what is expected.
For example, ALIGN(304, 192) equals 320 instead of 384, and
ALIGN(65, 192) equals 256 instead of 192.
However, nestling two ALIGN() as is done in this case seem to only
produce results equal to or bigger than the expected result if ALIGN()
had handled non powers of two, and that in turn results in framesizes
that are either the correct size or too large.
Fortunately, since 192 * 4 / 3 equals 256, it turns out that one ALIGN()
is sufficient.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
