Please add a few lines of comment about what the accessor does in general -
maybe
copy-paste from generic file if needed.

Could you reduce 1 level of indentation by checking for !count and return.

This math is loop invariant so instead of using bptr here, have something like
is_aligned = (unsigned long)buffer % ((t) / 8)) outside the loop. A reasonable
compiler already does that but this one is easier on eyes.

Per your later post the compiler is doing the good job here, but sometimes it
might not. Adding a condition inside a loop is not a good idea in general.
Better
to code the 2 loops seperately.

The trailing ; is not needed

Same as for read !

Ditto !
