Unfortunately, I am clueless of arm (and have no idea what alignment
exception is) but the problem is probably related to mm/slab.c using
alloc_pages_node() whereas mm/slob.c uses get_free_page(). Do you have
CONFIG_BUG enabled? If not, please turn it on to see if gfp_zone()
catches an invalid GFP flag coming from the slab.
