[PATCH v2 01/14] powerpc/perf/hv-24x7: use kmem_cache instead of aligned stack allocations

From: Cody P Schafer Ian pointed out the use of __aligned(4096) caused rather large stack consumption in single_24x7_request(), so use the kmem_cache hv_page_cache (which we've already got set up for other allocations) insead of allocating locally. CC: Haren Myneni CC: Cody P Schafer
