If the goal is 'have all arches use a single unaligned.h' -- then fine, let us *remove* the unaligned.h files in arches and refer to the generic one instead. That, indeed, would increase maintenability by *reducing* the number of files while *not* adding any complexity. I'll happily ack such a change.
that really isnt going to happen. files expect asm/foo.h. just like Linux.
In any case, this is not specifically an 'arm' topic: it touches all arches albeit lightly -- as you point out, Mike, this is a generic change. So I'd rather see a patchset to fix this globally and for good for every arch.
i have 0 incentive or desire to fix other arches. so that isnt going to happen by me either. -mike
