This problem is only with the very small FBs which are
rendered towards corners. For large FBs like 1366x768,
we dont see this issue though 1366 is not 16 pixel
aligned.

But I still carried out following experiments just to
verify the fimd behaviour for small overlay.

1) Round DOWN:
+  overlay->crtc_width = ((overlay->crtc_width)/16)*16;

Cursor corruption from A to B
A: [  308.530000] start addr = 0x20408000, end addr = 0x2040e000, size = 0x6000
[  308.530000] ovl_width = 64, ovl_height = 64
[  308.540000] offset_x = 1302, offset_y = 335
[  308.540000] fb_width = 96, fb_height = 64

B: [  341.890000] start addr = 0x20408000, end addr = 0x2040e000, size = 0x6000
[  341.890000] ovl_width = 48, ovl_height = 64
[  341.900000] offset_x = 1303, offset_y = 335
[  341.900000] fb_width = 96, fb_height = 64


2) Round UP:

+ overlay->crtc_width = ((overlay->crtc_width + 16)/16)*16;
+ if(overlay->crtc_width > overlay->fb_width)
+         overlay->crtc_width = overlay->fb_width;

Cursor corruption from A to B
A: [   63.200000] start addr = 0x20408000, end addr = 0x2040e000, size = 0x6000
[   63.210000] ovl_width = 96, ovl_height = 64
[   63.210000] offset_x = 1271, offset_y = 346
[   63.220000] fb_width = 96, fb_height = 64

B: [   68.600000] start addr = 0x20408000, end addr = 0x2040e000, size = 0x6000
[   68.610000] ovl_width = 96, ovl_height = 64
[   68.610000] offset_x = 1272, offset_y = 346
[   68.620000] fb_width = 96, fb_height = 64

In both the scenarios ovl_width is always 16 Pixel aligned.
Please let me know if you have something else in mind. I
will check and share the observations.

The solution in the patch is proposed by hardware team
and work fine for exynos 5250, 5420 and 5800.
