[patch 076/164] xtensa: set ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu Jul 01 2010 - 18:07:57 EST


2.6.33-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 498900fc9cd1adbad1ba6b55ed9d8f2f5d655ca3 upstream.

Architectures that handle DMA-non-coherent memory need to set
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to make sure that kmalloc'ed buffer is DMA-safe: the
buffer doesn't share a cache with the others.
