    ARM: allow alignment fault mode to be configured at kernel boot · d944d549
    Russell King authored
    Some glibc versions intentionally create lots of alignment faults in
    their gconv code, which if not fixed up, results in segfaults during
    boot.  This can prevent systems booting properly.
    
    There is no clear hard-configurable default for this; the desired
    default depends on the nature of the userspace which is going to be
    booted.
    
    So, provide a way for the alignment fault handler to be configured via
    the kernel command line.
