Thanks for the catch. I think it is not the only place where unaligned
issues are possible. Since the data records are 4-byte address + 2-byte
value there is also an issue with reading the address entries. Assuming
fw->data is aligned to at least 2-bytes (not quite sure if we can assume
that) there should be no problem with reading 2-byte register values.

We could change the data types of the register values from u16 to u32,
wasting some memory (there is approximately 3 000 records), so there is
no other data types in the file structure than u32. Or use a patch as
below. Not sure what's better.
