Subject: [PATCH 23/29] Unaligned pointer access
Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2007 21:17:19 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070412211719.GX21292@ghostprotocols.net> (raw)

This fixes `unaligned (read) access' errors of the type

 Kernel unaligned access at TPC[100f970c] dccp_parse_options+0x4f4/0x7e0 [dccp]
 Kernel unaligned access at TPC[1011f2e4] ccid3_hc_tx_parse_options+0x1ac/0x380 [dccp_ccid3]
 Kernel unaligned access at TPC[100f9898] dccp_parse_options+0x680/0x880 [dccp]

by using the get_unaligned macro for parsing options.
