Initially we bumped into problem with 32-bit aligned atomic64_t on ARC, see [1]. And then during quite lengthly discussion Peter Z. mentioned ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN which IMHO makes perfect sense. If allocation is done by plain kmalloc() obtained buffer will be ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN aligned and then why buffer obtained via devm_kmalloc() should have any other alignment? This way we at least get the same behavior for both types of allocation.
