From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

The get_unaligned()/put_unaligned() helpers are traditionally architecture
specific, with the two main variants being the "access-ok.h" version
that assumes unaligned pointer accesses always work on a particular
architecture, and the "le-struct.h" version that casts the data to a
byte aligned type before dereferencing, for architectures that cannot
always do unaligned accesses in hardware.

Based on the discussion linked below, it appears that the access-ok
version is not realiable on any architecture, but the struct version
probably has no downsides. This series changes the code to use the
same implementation on all architectures, addressing the few exceptions
separately.

I've pushed the patches to the asm-generic git tree for testing.

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

A simplification of get_unaligned() clashes with callers that pass
in a character pointer, causing a harmless warning like:

block/partitions/msdos.c: In function 'msdos_partition':
include/asm-generic/unaligned.h:13:22: warning: 'packed' attribute ignored for field of type 'u8' {aka 'unsigned char'} [-Wattributes]

Remove the get_unaligned() call and just use the byte directly.
