modpost: work around unaligned data access error
With the latest binutils, modpost fails with a bus error on some architectures such as ARM and sparc64. Since binutils commit 1f1b5e506bf0 ("bfd/ELF: restrict file alignment for object files"), the byte offset to each section (sh_offset) in relocatable ELF is no longer guaranteed to be aligned. modpost parses MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() data structures, which are usually located in the .rodata section. If it is not properly aligned, unaligned access errors may occur. To address the issue, this commit imports the get_unaligned() helper from include/linux/unaligned.h. The get_unaligned_native() helper caters to the endianness in addition to handling the unaligned access. I slightly refactored do_pcmcia_entry() and do_input() to avoid writing back to an unaligned address. (We would need the put_unaligned() helper to do that.) The addend_*_rel() functions need similar adjustments because the .text sections are not aligned either. It seems that the .symtab, .rel.* and .rela.* sections are still aligned. Keep normal pointer access for these sections to avoid unnecessary performance costs.
