[PATCH v5 1/4] parisc: Inline a type punning version of get_unaligned_le32

[Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>]

Reading the byte/char output_len with get_unaligned_le32 can trigger
compiler warnings due to the size read. Avoid these warnings by using
type punning. This avoids issues when switching get_unaligned_t to
__builtin_memcpy.
