Vanilla handles the alignment trap by emulating the faulting

Yes, I know. But the handling of unaligned accesses via trap handler must
be
enabled by the user and I'm not aware that this is needed for vanilla
Linux.
I remember reading on the LAKML that the alignment trap is needed for
kernel operations, notably for the IP stack.
