Support large alignment requests

The linux kernel has some structures that are page aligned,
i.e. 4096.  Instead of enlarging the bit fields to specify this,
use the fact that alignment is always power of two, and store only
the log2 minus 1 of it.  The 5 bits are enough to specify an alignment
of 1 << 30.
