 I see. I will commit the workaround soon.

 Well, but it is difficult to make sure which components access
 DMA buffers and which do not. I prefer to forbid whole kernel to
 unaligned access. The affect on performance is, anyway, negligibly
 small as far as I can see; some lazy ``benchmark'' of building
 lang/perl shows only 0.1% difference between kernels with and
 without -mno-unaligned-access:

 If there's no objection, I will also send pull-up request for
 netbsd-9 in few days.
 
 Thanks,
 rin
