Subject: [100/115] sched: Remove unused PF_ALIGNWARN flag

2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

Commit: 637bbdc5b83615ef9f45f50399d1c7f27473c713 upstream

PF_ALIGNWARN is not implemented and it is for 486 as the
comment.

It is not likely someone will implement this flag feature.
So here remove this flag and leave the valuable 0x00000001 for
future use.
