[RESEND GIT PATCH tj-percpu] percpu: fix spurious alignment WARN in legacy SMP percpu allocator

Impact: remove spurious WARN on legacy SMP percpu allocator

Commit f2a8205c4ef1af917d175c36a4097ae5587791c8 incorrectly added too
tight WARN_ON_ONCE() on alignments for UP and legacy SMP percpu
allocator.  Commit e317603694bfd17b28a40de9d65e1a4ec12f816e fixed it
for UP but legacy SMP allocator was forgotten.  Fix it.

(RESEND: cc'ing Ingo. :-)

Oops, that was a stupid omission.  This patch should fix it.  Ingo,
please pull from the following git vector to receive the first first
four patches from the use-dynamic-percpu-allocator-by-default patchset
(without the actual conversion which can disrupt archs) + this patch.
I moved the actual conversion patch into #tj-percpu-exp branch, so the
pull should be safe.

Thanks.
