crypto: aesni - Use unaligned loads from gcm_context_data
A regression was reported bisecting to 1476db2d "Move HashKey computation from stack to gcm_context". That diff moved HashKey computation from the stack, which was explicitly aligned in the asm, to a struct provided from the C code, depending on AESNI_ALIGN_ATTR for alignment. It appears some compilers may not align this struct correctly, resulting in a crash on the movdqa instruction when attempting to encrypt or decrypt data. Fix by using unaligned loads for the HashKeys. On modern hardware there is no perf difference between the unaligned and aligned loads. All other accesses to gcm_context_data already use unaligned loads.
