[PATCH v7 01/17] mm/slab: Decouple ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN from ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN

In preparation for supporting a kmalloc() minimum alignment smaller than
the arch DMA alignment, decouple the two definitions. This requires that
either the kmalloc() caches are aligned to a (run-time) cache-line size
or the DMA API bounces unaligned kmalloc() allocations. Subsequent
patches will implement both options.

After this patch, ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN is expected to be used in static
alignment annotations and defined by an architecture to be the maximum
alignment for all supported configurations/SoCs in a single Image.
Architectures opting in to a smaller ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN will need to
define its value in the arch headers.

Since ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN is now always defined, adjust the #ifdef in
dma_get_cache_alignment() so that there is no change for architectures
not requiring a minimum DMA alignment.
