[patch 3/3] cell: prevent alignment interrupt on local store

NAK.  Please use memcpy_fromio() and friends instead,
that's what they're there for.  I believe Arnd was working
on this?

Your patch is only a partial solution, you'd need -mno-multiple
-mno-algebraic -mno-dcbz too (and two of those don't even
exist).
