Subject: arm64: allow kmalloc() caches aligned to the smaller cache_line_size()
Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2023 16:31:55 +0100

On arm64, ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN is 128, larger than the cache line size on
most of the current platforms (typically 64).  Define
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to 8 (the default for architectures without their
own ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN) and override dma_get_cache_alignment() to return
cache_line_size(), probed at run-time.  The kmalloc() caches will be
limited to the cache line size.  This will allow the additional
kmalloc-{64,192} caches on most arm64 platforms.
