This reverts commit 62649165cb02ab95b57360bb362886935f524f26.
The patch decreased the write performance quite a bit.
Here is an example on an i.MX 8M Quad platform.
- Before the revert:
Sending sparse 'vendor' 1/2 (516436 KB) OKAY [ 5.113s]
Writing 'vendor' OKAY [128.335s]
Sending sparse 'vendor' 2/2 (76100 KB) OKAY [ 0.802s]
Writing 'vendor' OKAY [ 27.902s]
- After the revert:
Sending sparse 'vendor' 1/2 (516436 KB) OKAY [ 5.310s]
Writing 'vendor' OKAY [ 18.041s]
Sending sparse 'vendor' 2/2 (76100 KB) OKAY [ 1.244s]
Writing 'vendor' OKAY [ 2.663s]
Considering that the patch only moves buffer around to avoid a warning
message about misaligned buffers, let's keep the best performances.

So what is the point of this warning?

Well the warning does say something true that the cache operation is not
aligned. Better ask Simon as he's the one who changed the print from a
debug to warn_non_spl one:
bcc53bf0958 arm: Show cache warnings in U-Boot proper only
BTW, in my case I couldn't see the misaligned messages, yet I saw the
performance hit described above.
Regards,
Gary

Maybe it is better to keep this as a Kconfig? Some arches may support
unaligned access but others may not. I wonder if we have something like
this already.

I also reproduce this problem on AM62x SK EVM.
Before the revert:
Sending sparse 'super' 1/2 (768793 KB) OKAY [ 23.954s]
Writing 'super' OKAY [ 75.926s]
Sending sparse 'super' 2/2 (629819 KB) OKAY [ 19.641s]
Writing 'super' OKAY [ 62.849s]
Finished. Total time: 182.474s
After the revert:
Sending sparse 'super' 1/2 (768793 KB) OKAY [ 23.895s]
Writing 'super' OKAY [ 12.961s]
Sending sparse 'super' 2/2 (629819 KB) OKAY [ 19.562s]
Writing 'super' OKAY [ 12.805s]
Finished. Total time: 69.327s
And like Gary, I did not observe the misaligned messages.
Did we come up with a solution for this performance regression?
I will continue looking on my end but please let me know if you already
solved this.
Thanks,
Matijs

Answering to myself here. My attempt of solving this problem has been
