Yes (well, it's in -next now, so merging the for-next branch of
git://github.com/jahogan/metag-linux.git would add Meta support, which
at the point of your commit produces no conflicts).

It sounds like Stephen Warren has hit the same problem (in the
configuration I'm using ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN was also 64, but in another
configuration that worked, ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN was 8 (see
arch/metag/include/asm/cache.h).

For the record though, to cross compile, you'd need to build a
meta2_defconfig of the buildroot at
git://github.com/img-meta/metag-buildroot.git.

Cheers
James
