kernel oops when reading /proc/bus/pci/00/01.00 with odd size and odd alignment

kernel oops when reading /proc/bus/pci/00/01.00 with odd size and odd alignment

[Colin King (gmail)]

Hi,

While testing the Alpha kernel with stress-ng procfs test I found that 
misaligned odd reads cause an oops. I was able to figure out a simple 
reproducer as follows:

dd seek=1 if=/proc/bus/pci/00/01.0 of=/dev/zero bs=5
