--- Comment #27 from Arnd Bergmann <arnd at linaro dot org> ---
The linux kernel instance from arch/parisc/ looks like a bug we fixed in
arch/arm a few years ago, by adding the required alignment directive to the
linker script.
If changing the linker script is not possible because of boot loader
requirements, then this should do as well:
diff --git a/arch/parisc/boot/compressed/misc.c
