x86: fix power-of-2 round_up/round_down macros

These macros had two bugs:
 - the type of the mask was not correctly expanded to the full size of
   the argument being expanded, resulting in possible loss of high bits
   when mixing types.
 - the alignment argument was evaluated twice, despite the macro looking
   like a fancy function (but it really does need to be a macro, since
   it works on arbitrary integer types)

Noticed by Peter Anvin, and with a fix that is a modification of his
suggestion (bug noticed by Yinghai Lu).
