Hi,

b43_generate_plcp_hdr generate unaligned access on mips with gcc [1] from openwrt.

A small testcase [2] show that &plcp->data is access as a 32 bit aligned variable (see the "lw $2,0($4)" and "sw $2,0($4)"). I don't know enough mips to know if it is a gcc bug (ignoring the packed attribute) or something missing in b43 code.
For example using "plcp->data" instead "*data" produce the correct code.
