Not sure what you mean here. All architectures always naturally align
'long' variables -- we rely on that elsewhere already. 'long long' is
misaligned on x86-32 and possibly some other 32 bit architectures, but
since that should not cause any problems.

Another option would be to export just the strto{u,s}{8,16,32,64}
functions and define the inline wrappers conditionally on CONFIG_64BIT.
