Subject: [PATCH -next] tile: set ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN

The minimum alignment and width of DMA is L2_CACHE_BYTES (because your
dma_get_cache_alignment() returns L2_CACHE_BYTES), right?

Subject: [PATCH -next] tile: set ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN

Architectures that handle DMA-non-coherent memory need to set
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to make sure that kmalloc'ed buffer is DMA-safe:
the buffer doesn't share a cache with the others.
