ixgbe: Correct length check for round up
The function ixgbe_host_interface_command actually uses a multiple of word sized buffer to do its business, but only checks against the actual length passed in. This means that on read operations it could be possible to modify locations beyond the length passed in. Change the check to round up in the same way, just to avoid any possible hazard.
