The ARM/AARCH64 implementation of ReadUnaligned16() just
does the byte access which will always work.  So not need
to do the 2 modes you suggest above.

UINT16
EFIAPI
ReadUnaligned16 (
  IN CONST UINT16              *Buffer
  )
{
  volatile UINT8 LowerByte;
  volatile UINT8 HigherByte;

  ASSERT (Buffer != NULL);

  LowerByte = ((UINT8*)Buffer)[0];
  HigherByte = ((UINT8*)Buffer)[1];

  return (UINT16)(LowerByte | (HigherByte << 8));
}
