Sure, but CONFIG_RISCV_PROBE_UNALIGNED_ACCESS selects
CONFIG_RISCV_SCALAR_MISALIGNED, so this isn't fixing anything. Changing it
does make sense though since this line in handle_scalar_misaligned_load()
"belongs" to check_unaligned_access_emulated() which is also under
CONFIG_RISCV_SCALAR_MISALIGNED. Anyway, all this unaligned configs need a
major cleanup.
