As noted in the previous commit, due to the way we allocate the dev_cmd headers with 324 byte size, and 4/8 byte alignment, the part we use of them (bytes 20..40-68) could still cross a page and thus 2^32 boundary. Address this by using alignment to ensure that the allocation cannot cross a page boundary, on hardware that's affected. To make that not cause more memory consumption, reduce the size of the allocations to the necessary size - we go from 324 bytes in each allocation to 60/68 on gen2 depending on family, and ~120 or so on gen1 (so on gen1 it's a pure reduction in size, since we don't need alignment there). To avoid size and clearing issues, add a new structure that's just the header, and use kmem_cache_zalloc().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
