arm: Switch to -mno-unaligned-access when supported by the compiler
When we tell the compiler to optimize for ARMv7 (and ARMv6 for that
matter) it assumes a default of SCTRL.A being cleared and unaligned
accesses being allowed and fast at the hardware level. We set this bit
and must pass along -mno-unaligned-access so that the compiler will
still breakdown accesses and not trigger a data abort.
To better help understand the requirements of the project with respect
to unaligned memory access, the
Documentation/unaligned-memory-access.txt file has been added as
doc/README.unaligned-memory-access.txt and is taken from the v3.14-rc1
tag of the kernel.
