kernel/linux: prepare for arch whose kenel name is not the standard name

For some architectures, the kernel architecture name is not the common
name of the architecture for other tools.

For example: ARM 64-bit is commonly referenced as aarch64, but the kernel
calls it arm64.

ARMV5 can use STRD and LDRD access instructions but these accesses need to be 
yann@1248
     5
8 byte aligned. The dynamic linker's malloc needs to match this so structures

     6
become 8 byte aligned to void unaligned accesses.
