[PATCH] task_struct alignment fix
The recent slab alignment changes broke an unknown number of architectures (parisc and x86_64 for sure) by causing task_structs to be insufficiently aligned. We need good alignemnt because architectures do things like dumping FP state into the task_struct with instructions which require particular alignment (I think). So change the default alignment to L1_CACHE_BYTES, which is what we used to have, via SLAB_HW_CACHE_ALIGN.
