The kernel is aligned at SEGMENT_SIZE and this is the size populated in the PE headers: arch/arm64/kernel/efi-header.S: .long SEGMENT_ALIGN // SectionAlignment EFI_KIMG_ALIGN is defined as: (SEGMENT_ALIGN > THREAD_ALIGN ? SEGMENT_ALIGN : THREAD_ALIGN) So it depends on THREAD_ALIGN. On newer builds this message started to appear even though the loader is taking into account the PE header (which is stating SEGMENT_ALIGN).
