Some reorganization of the memory allocation for the xfs log
buffers. This has two affects, it stops us from using a 64K
chunk of memory for the 32K buffer - we now use 32K chunks.
The other is to make the log writes start on page boundaries
which will help raid5 - and everyone else probably.

        - Break iclog memory into two chunks to make log writes page aligned 
          and to save memory.
