commit b4d956f6bc0f ("bootm: Align cache flush end address correctly")
aligns the end address of the cache flush operation to a cache-line size to
ensure lower-layers in the code accept the range provided and flush.

A similar action should be taken for the begin address of a cache flush
operation. The load address may not be aligned to a cache-line boundary, so
ensure the passed address is aligned.

Am I wrong in thinking that we would want ALIGN_DOWN for load here?

No, we'll need to increase the length of the flush too.

I'll change this to an analog of

if (load != ALIGN_DOWN(load)) {
     load_flush = ALIGN_DOWN(load);
     load_flush_len += load - load_flush;
}

etc
