Subject: [PATCH 4.14 50/74] parisc: Align os_hpmc_size on word boundary

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

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

From: Helge Deller <deller@....de>

commit 0ed9d3de5f8f97e6efd5ca0e3377cab5f0451ead upstream.

The os_hpmc_size variable sometimes wasn't aligned at word boundary and thus
triggered the unaligned fault handler at startup.
Fix it by aligning it properly.
