From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Subject: atomic: add alignment check to instrumented atomic operations
Date: Wed, 31 Dec 2025 19:25:42 +1100

Add a Kconfig option for debug builds which logs a warning when an
instrumented atomic operation takes place that's misaligned.  Some
platforms don't trap for this.

[fthain@linux-m68k.org: added __DISABLE_BUG_TABLE macro]
