True, there's a risk that it doesn't get included with some future
header refactoring.

What about moving ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to linux/cache.h? Alternatively, I
could create a new linux/dma-minalign.h file but I feel since this is
about caches, having it in cache.h makes more sense. asm/cache.h is also
where most archs define the constant (apart from mips, sh, microblaze).
