Why the temporary variable. You can just do:
	return ((*(const u32 *)addr1) ^ (*(const u32 *)addr2)) |
	       ((*(const u16 *)(addr1 + 4)) ^ (*(const u16 *)(addr2 + 4))) != 0;

Or
	return !!((*(const u32 *)addr1) ^ (*(const u32 *)addr2)) |
	         ((*(const u16 *)(addr1 + 4)) ^ (*(const u16 *)(addr2 + 4))));
