imo this is a silly pattern to rename functions because they
got new arguments.
The names of the args are clear enough "align" and "node".
I see no point in adding the same suffixes to a function name.
In the future this function will receive another argument and
the function would be renamed again?!
"_noprof" suffix makes sense, since it's there for alloc_hooks,
but "_node_align_" is unnecessary.
