Heinrich Schuchardt d47a774680 arm: arm11: allow unaligned memory access
The UEFI spec mandates that unaligned memory access should be enabled if
supported by the CPU architecture.

This patch implements the function unaligned_access() to set the enable
unaligned data support flag and to clear the aligned flag in the system
control register (SCTLR). It is called when UEFI related commands like
bootefi are invoked.
