ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN and ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN are both in bytes
(ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN used to be defined as BYTES_PER_WORD) if I recall
correctly, are you sure this is what you want?
Yeah, I actually defined it to L1_CACHE_BYTES. The idea is to avoid
cacheline sharing between different kmalloc() allocations, which may
mess up DMA transfers. So 32 bytes alignment is indeed what I want.
