You can't enable this by default until ALL the known potentially misaligned locked memory operations have been fixed. AFAICT you've only fixed the ones that have actually faulted. You've not even fixed the other ones in the same source files as ones you've 'fixed'. You need to do a code audit of all the in-tree kernel code that uses locked operations - especially the 'bit' ones since a lot of code casts the bitmap address - so it probably isn't long aligned.
