Together FEC driver and parts of IP stack might end up trying to
memcpy() small chunks of memory from uncached (that is Device memory)
addresses that are not properly aligned, leading to data abort.
To prevent such cases, add code to guard unaligned accesses and
redirect them to byte-wise implementations which do not have the above
problem.
