ipc/util.c, ipc_rcu_alloc: cacheline align allocation

Enforce that ipc_rcu_alloc returns a cacheline aligned pointer on SMP.

Rationale:

The SysV sem code tries to move the main spinlock into a seperate
cacheline (____cacheline_aligned_in_smp).  This works only if
ipc_rcu_alloc returns cacheline aligned pointers.  vmalloc and kmalloc
return cacheline algined pointers, the implementation of ipc_rcu_alloc
breaks that.
