The commit "mm: Move ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN and
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to <linux/slab_def.h>"
1f0ce8b3dd which moved the ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN
default into the global header broke FLAT for Microblaze.
Error message:
slab error in verify_redzone_free(): cache `idr_layer_cache':
memory outside object was overwritten

PowerPC description:
On platforms doing non-coherent DMA (4xx, 8xx, ...), it's important
that the kmalloc minimum alignment is set to the cache line size, to
avoid sharing cache lines between different objects, so that DMA to
one of the objects doesn't corrupt the other.

Current implementation doesn't handle dcache_line_length
correctly that's why is better to use generic memcpy.
Cache optimized function could be good way howto improve
performance but must be based on benchmarking not blind
function like this.

I found several problems for ll_temac driver and on system with WB.
This early fix should fix it. I will clean this patch before I will add
it to mainline

Configuring DEBUG_SLAB causes a noMMU kernel to die during initialization
with an invalid virtual address panic in kfree_debugcheck().
The panic is due to an improper definition of pfn_valid().

LOAD_OFFSET is the offset between the physical load address and the kernel's
virtual address. It will be used in the upcoming commit to vmlinux.ld.S to
make sure that the LMAs of sections in vmlinux are correct.

The current asm-generic/page.h only contains the get_order
function, and asm-generic/uaccess.h only implements
unaligned accesses. This renames the file to getorder.h
and uaccess-unaligned.h to make room for new page.h
and uaccess.h file that will be usable by all simple
(e.g. nommu) architectures.
