That works, or builds at least. I'm not setup to boot test it.

Does this look OK?

cheers

Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/8xx: Move tail of alignment exception out of line

When we enable VMAP_STACK there will not be enough room for the
alignment handler at 0x600 in head_8xx.S. For now move the tail of the
alignment handler out of line, and branch to it.
