Thanks for the report.  I'm downgrading it because the kernel seems to be
handling all of the unaligned problems itself without incident other than
the warning messages, and the "PCI errors" on removing a USB device are
hearsay without any specific indication of the severity.

Unaligned accesses, if handled, are a performance issue only, so should not
be RC.

FWIW, the provided patch does look correct to me for the first issue.

Cheers,
