Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: aaci - Fix alignment faults on ARM Cortex introduced by
 commit 29a4f2d3

The commit 29a4f2d3 used writel() at offset 0x26 which is
half-word aligned causing unaligned exceptions on a
Cortex-A8. The original patch solved the "aaci-pl041 fpga:04:
ac97 read back fail" issue on a soft reset. Reading from any
arbitrary aaci register seems to solve this issue.
