Subject: kernel unaligned accesses on 2.6.29.

I just built and booted an ia64 2.6.29 kernel.  While accessing NFS
filesystems, I occassionally get:

kernel unaligned access to 0xe00007bc3b8f67b9, ip=0xa00000020a61e370
kernel unaligned access to 0xe00007bc3b8f67b1, ip=0xa00000020a61e3d1

grep a00000020a61 /proc/modules
lockd 146448 1 nfs, Live 0xa00000020a610000


These come in pairs.  I tracked it down to the lockd.ko kernel module
and then objdump'd to find we are in:
