sparc32: unaligned memory access (MNA) trap handler bug
Since commit f0e98c38 ("[SPARC]: Fix link errors with gcc-4.3") the MNA trap handler does not emulate stores to unaligned addresses correctly. MNA operation from both kernel and user space are affected. A typical effect of this bug is nr_frags in skbs are overwritten during buffer copying/checksum-calculation, or maximally 6 bytes of data in the network buffer will be overwitten with garbage.
