[PATCH v2] x86: Align TLB invalidation info

[Nadav Amit]

The TLB invalidation info is allocated on the stack, which might cause
it to be unaligned. Since this information may be transferred to
different cores for TLB shootdown, this might result in an additional
cache-line bouncing between the cores.

We do not use __cacheline_aligned() since it also defines the section,
which is inappropriate for stack variables.
