Hmm, I decided not to use CRASH_ALIGN there because I didn't want to
break anyone's existing setup unnecessarily, however arguably it
should be CRASH_ALIGN to ensure that the new kernel is properly
positioned.

I wonder if we can get away with changing that, rather than
unnecessarily introducing these otherwise meaningless definitions
for R-class.
