kmalloc_node returns unaligned pointers on powerpc, when CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB
is enabled. This makes iptables very unhappy. It checks the alignment in
net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6_tables.c:check_entry_size_and_hooks().
__alignof__(struct ip6t_entry) returns 8. But returned pointers from
xt_alloc_table_info() are unaligned:

ip_nat_init: can't setup rules.

Any ideas how to fix that?
