This allows SLUB debugging to be used without fear of messing up DMA
transfers. SPI is one example that easily breaks without this patch.

* Memory returned by kmalloc() may be used for DMA, so we must make
* sure that all such allocations are cache aligned. Otherwise,
* unrelated code may cause parts of the buffer to be read into the
* cache before the transfer is done, causing old data to be seen by
* the CPU.
