        syssrc/sys/dev/tc: asc_ioasic.c

Log Message:
Fix IOASIC DMA alignment problems.  Buffers not aligned on doubleword (8
byte) boundaries don't work correctly.  Make use of the SDR0/SDR1 registers
to adjust the buffer alignment when starting the DMA transfer.  Block device
I/O done by the filesystems will usually be aligned correctly, but character
device I/O may not be aligned correctly.  This should fix the problems with
dump(8) failing randomly on DECstations.
