ARM: 9115/1: mm/maccess: fix unaligned copy_{from,to}_kernel_nofault
On machines such as ARMv5 that trap unaligned accesses, these two functions can be slow when each access needs to be emulated, or they might not work at all. Change them so that each loop is only used when both the src and dst pointers are naturally aligned.
