    kprobes: Ensure blacklist data is aligned · 69902c71
    Vineet Gupta 提交于
    ARC Linux (not supporting native unaligned access) was failing
    to boot because __start_kprobe_blacklist was not aligned.
    
    This was because per generated vmlinux.lds it was emitted right
    next to .rodata with strings etc hence could be randomly
    unaligned.
    
    Fix that by ensuring a word alignment. While 4 would suffice for
    32bit arches and problem at hand, it is probably better to put 8.
