From: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@xxxxxxxxxx> On some architectures (e.g. arm64), ____cachline_aligned only aligns to the cacheline size of the L1 cache size. L1_CACHE_BYTES in arch64/include/asm/cache.h Unfortunately DMA safety on these architectures requires the buffer no share a last level cache cacheline given by ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN which has a greater granularity. ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN is not defined for all architectures, but when it is defined it is used to set the size of ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to allow DMA safe buffer allocations. As such the correct alignment requirement is __aligned(ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN). This has recently been fixed in other subsystems such as IIO.
