Currently, Ralink SoCs use the default ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN value of 128
bytes defined in mach-generic. This is excessive for these platforms
and leads to significant memory waste in kmalloc.

Override ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to use L1_CACHE_BYTES, which is 16 bytes for
RT288X and 32 bytes for other Ralink SoCs.
