Well, but that should be part of the Kconfig rules too.

In fact, I think that argues for moving that FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT into
the generic Kconfig, since we already have that much hackier debug
thing there.

That would then get rid of the conditional in asm-generic too, and get
rid of the horrid hack in the main Makefile as well.

I love how commit cf536e185869 ("Makefile: extend 32B aligned debug
option to 64B aligned") took that previous random debug entry and just
made it 64B instead of 32B. What a crock that all is.

Let's just do this right.
