From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Tue Apr 01 2014 - 12:31:37 EST


3.8.13.21 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@xxxxxxxxx>

commit a5b2cf5b1af424ee3dd9e3ce6d5cea18cb927e67 upstream.

The 64bit relocation code places a few symbols in the text segment.
These symbols are only 4 byte aligned where they need to be 8 byte
aligned. Add an explicit alignment.
