/* Because kmalloc only guarantees 8-byte alignment for kmalloc'd data,
and GCC only guarantees 8-byte alignment for stack locals, we can't
be assured of 16-byte alignment for atomic lock data even if we
specify "__attribute ((aligned(16)))" in the type declaration. So,
we use a struct containing an array of four ints for the atomic lock
type and dynamically select the 16-byte aligned int from the array
- for the semaphore. */

+/* From: "Jim Hull" <jim.hull of hp.com>
+ I've attached a summary of the change, but basically, for PA 2.0, as
+ long as the ",CO" (coherent operation) completer is implemented, then the
+ 16-byte alignment requirement for ldcw and ldcd is relaxed, and instead
+ they only require "natural" alignment (4-byte for ldcw, 8-byte for
+ ldcd).
+
+ Although the cache control hint is accepted by all PA 2.0 processors,
+ it is only implemented on PA8800/PA8900 CPUs. Prior PA8X00 CPUs still
+ require 16-byte alignment. If the address is unaligned, the operation
+ of the instruction is undefined. The ldcw instruction does not generate
+ unaligned data reference traps so misaligned accesses are not detected.
+ This hid the problem for years. So, restore the 16-byte alignment dropped
+ by Kyle McMartin in "Remove __ldcw_align for PA-RISC 2.0 processors". */
