As I said earlier, I just vaguely remember that there was some issue
with a SOC in reading non word aligned addresses.
(1) I do not have any reference for it and (2) even if some where
there could be such issue they can always have platform specific
accessor . So I support your idea and both read and write can be made
symmetric.
