commit f76a16adc485699f95bb71fce114f97c832fe664 upstream.
The .orc_unwind section is a packed array of 6-byte structs. It's
currently aligned to 6 bytes, which is causing warnings in the LLD
linker.
Six isn't a power of two, so it's not a valid alignment value. The
actual alignment doesn't matter much because it's an array of packed
structs. An alignment of two is sufficient. In reality it always gets
aligned to four bytes because it comes immediately after the
4-byte-aligned .orc_unwind_ip section.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
