MIPS: Align kernel load address to 64KB
KEXEC needs the new kernel's load address to be aligned on a page boundary (see sanity_check_segment_list()), but on MIPS the default vmlinuz load address is only explicitly aligned to 16 bytes. Since the largest PAGE_SIZE supported by MIPS kernels is 64KB, increase the alignment calculated by calc_vmlinuz_load_addr to 64KB.
