From dba8a58b46ae36f95addf138cfb00594293d53fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonas Gorski Date: Sun, 6 Apr 2014 22:03:42 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] brcm63xx: hack around jffs2 corruption with SMP mempy_fromio seems to be randomly failing when the destination is unaligned; work around it by forcing the name to be aligned in memory. Should fix jffs2 and SMP for now, but needs to be some additional looking into as it does not fix the source.
