The test is failing without these 2 patches, while with them, an unaligned
access is fixed, and the generated code looks good :
     7ac:       ee13cf10        mrc     15, 0, ip, cr3, cr0, {0}
     7b0:       e3cc300c        bic     r3, ip, #12
     7b4:       e58dc014        str     ip, [sp, #20]
     7b8:       e3833004        orr     r3, r3, #4
     7bc:       ee033f10        mcr     15, 0, r3, cr3, cr0, {0}

Cheers.
