Unlike SLUB, sometimes, object isn't started at the beginning of the slab in SLAB. This causes the unalignment problem after slab merging is supported by commit 12220dea ("mm/slab: support slab merge"). Following is the report from Markos that fail to boot on Malta with EVA.

This kmem_cache requires 256 bytes alignment, but, current merging code doesn't honor that, and merge it with kmalloc-256. kmalloc-256 requires only cacheline size alignment so that above failure occurs. However, in x86, kmalloc-256 is luckily aligned in 256 bytes, so the problem didn't happen on it. To fix this problem, this patch introduces alignment mismatch check in find_mergeable(). This will fix the problem.
