FRV: Specify the minimum slab/kmalloc alignment
Specify the minimum slab/kmalloc alignment to be 8 bytes. This fixes a crash when SLOB is selected as the memory allocator. The FRV arch needs this so that it can use the load- and store-double instructions without faulting. By default SLOB sets the minimum to be 4 bytes.
