Turns out I was able to define ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN for all U-Boot
architectures and use that
instead of the actual cache line size to generate correctly aligned
buffers.  My latest
patch set implements this.  So we shouldn't have any warnings being
generated and we should
have no need for the extra file (or addition to main.c) to generate
said warnings.  :)

Thanks,
    Anton
