The Michael MIC driver uses the cra_alignmask to ensure that pointers presented to its update and finup/final methods are 32-bit aligned. However, due to the way the shash API works, this is no guarantee that the 32-bit reads occurring in the update method are also aligned, as the size of the buffer presented to update may be of uneven length. For instance, an update() of 3 bytes followed by a misaligned update() of 4 or more bytes will result in a misaligned access using an accessor that is not suitable for this. On most architectures, this does not matter, and so setting the cra_alignmask is pointless. On architectures where this does matter, setting the cra_alignmask does not actually solve the problem. So let's get rid of the cra_alignmask, and use unaligned accessors instead, where appropriate.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
