-2) More to come...
+2) ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN
+
+   Architectures must ensure that kmalloc'ed buffer is
+   DMA-safe. Drivers and subsystems depend on it. If an architecture
+   isn't fully DMA-coherent (i.e. hardware doesn't ensure that data in
+   the CPU cache is identical to data in main memory),
+   ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN must be set so that the memory allocator
+   makes sure that kmalloc'ed buffer doesn't share a cache line with
+   the others. See arch/arm/include/asm/cache.h as an example.
+
+   Note that ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is about DMA memory alignment
+   constraints. You don't need to worry about the architecture data
+   alignment constraints (e.g. the alignment constraints about 64-bit
+   objects).
