I was looking at that, and was considering if this is the right
thing to do or to change the value of BUG_INSTR_VALUE depending
on this.

It is possible the linker may try and change the ordering of the
BUG() instruction as it is being placed in the output with either
a .hword or .word value. I will go and check this as soon as possible.

It is possible that it could be changed, but I will avoid that for this
particular patch

Thanks, will check.
