powerpc/64s: Allocate LPPACAs individually
We no longer allocate lppacas in an array, so this patch removes the 1kB static alignment for the structure, and enforces the PAPR alignment requirements at allocation time. We can not reduce the 1kB allocation size however, due to existing KVM hypervisors. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
