alinux: arm64: adjust tk_core memory layout 

to #29722367

On some specific hardware with 128 bytes LLC cacheline, tk_core may
cause false sharing problem. We can align it to 128 bytes so that
it won't be affected by other global variables.

This change will make a bit waste on cache utilization but get good
number of performance improvement. So for both 64 and 128 bytes aligned
LLC cacheline, we adjust tk_core memory layout to avoid potential cacheline
contention.

LLC cacheline size may be up to 128 bytes, and this
is useful if you want to do workaround on such
case. It can be used to align memory address to get
good cache utilization et al.
