PATCH 4/5 : Unaligned pointer access

This fixes `unaligned (read) access' errors of the type

Kernel unaligned access at TPC[100f970c] dccp_parse_options+0x4f4/0x7e0 [dccp] Kernel unaligned access at TPC[1011f2e4] ccid3_hc_tx_parse_options+0x1ac/0x380 [dccp_ccid3] Kernel unaligned access at TPC[100f9898] dccp_parse_options+0x680/0x880 [dccp]

by using the get_unaligned macro for parsing options.

Commiter note: Preserved the sparse __be{16,32} annotations.
