    fs: dlm: remove unaligned memory access handling · df9e06b8

    This patch removes unaligned memory access handling for receiving
    midcomms messages. This handling will not fix the unaligned memory
    access in general. All messages should be length aligned to 8 bytes,
    there exists cases where this isn't the case. It's part of the sending
    handling to not send such messages. As the sending handling itself, with
    the internal allocator of page buffers, can occur in unaligned memory
    access of dlm message fields we just ignore that problem for now as it
    seems this code is used by architecture which can handle it.
    
    This patch adds a comment to take care about that problem in a major
    bump of dlm protocol.
