We currently have the SCTLR_EL2.A bit set, trapping unaligned accesses at EL2, but we're not really prepared to deal with it. So far, this has been unnoticed, until GCC 7 started emitting those (in particular 64bit writes on a 32bit boundary). Since the rest of the kernel is pretty happy about that, let's follow its example and set SCTLR_EL2.A to zero. Modern CPUs don't really care.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
