nope, sorry - well, not exactly fine.  ;)

We fixed on-disk structure alignment errors for XFS - this is a different problem, with in-memory alignment...

These memory access problem on arm may well still exist.

It's "only" a warning about alignment though, right - I don't think this results in any corruption etc, does it (anyway, filefrag is read-only).

And as the comments in this bug indicate, I'm really not quite sure what the accepted method of fixing is.  I imagine there are several applications that exhibit similar behavior?
