[PATCH] x86_64: Inclusion of ScaleMP vSMP architecture patches - vsmp_align

vSMP specific alignment patch to
1. Define INTERNODE_CACHE_SHIFT for vSMP
2. Use this for alignment of critical structures
3. Use INTERNODE_CACHE_SHIFT for ARCH_MIN_TASKALIGN,
   and let the slab align task_struct allocations to the internode cacheline size
4. Introduce and use ARCH_MIN_MMSTRUCT_ALIGN for mm_struct slab allocations.
