Before this patch one could receive following errors when executing "fatls" command on machine with cache enabled (ex i.MX6Q) :

To alleviate this problem - the calloc()s have been replaced with malloc_cache_aligned() and memset().
After those changes the buffers are properly aligned (with both start address and size) to SoC cache line.
