MIPS: pm-cps: Drop manual cache-line alignment of ready_count
We allocate memory for a ready_count variable per-CPU, which is accessed via a cached non-coherent TLB mapping to perform synchronisation between threads within the core using LL/SC instructions. In order to ensure that the variable is contained within its own data cache line we allocate 2 lines worth of memory & align the resulting pointer to a line boundary. This is however unnecessary, since kmalloc is guaranteed to return memory which is at least cache-line aligned (see ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN). Stop the redundant manual alignment. Besides cleaning up the code & avoiding needless work, this has the side effect of avoiding an arithmetic error found by Bryan on 64 bit systems due to the 32 bit size of the former dlinesz. This led the ready_count variable to have its upper 32b cleared erroneously for MIPS64 kernels, causing problems when ready_count was later used on MIPS64 via cpuidle.
