This is invariant to the loop, can be moved out.

Ditto. However it may require to factor out the following loop to a helper.

round_up() ?

I would move this to the if conditional, i.e.

	if (dst_pitch)
		WARN_ONCE(dst_pitch % 8 != 0, "dst_pitch is not a multiple of 8\n");
	else
		dst_pitch = round_up(linepixels, 8);

ALIGN() ?
