Thanks for the patch. Sorry for the delay. The change looks fine.

Can you add some test case of the  __assume_aligned__ attribute?
I want to see how it was used in your source code which cause the problem
for sparse.

We need some basic test case just in case we parse the attributes in the
future.

Thanks

Chris
