Makefile: extend 32B aligned debug option to 64B aligned
Commit 09c60546 ("./Makefile: add debug option to enable function aligned on 32 bytes") was introduced to help debugging strange kernel performance changes caused by code alignment change. Recently we found 2 similar cases [1][2] caused by code-alignment changes, which can only be identified by forcing 64 bytes aligned for all functions. Originally, 32 bytes was used mainly for not wasting too much text space, but this option is only for debug anyway where text space is not a big concern. So extend the alignment to 64 bytes to cover more similar cases.
