>Description:
A macro ASSERT_ATOMIC_LOAD_PTR() hits in colfire port I work on. It is possibly 
due to use of GNU GCC (4.5.1) compiler -Os option (size optimalization). The 
macro is applied on four places:

sys/kern/kern_lock.c
sys/kern/kern_mutex.c
sys/kern/kern_rwlock.c
sys/kern/kern_sx.c

and tests entries in four structures:

volatile uintptr_t lk_lock -> struct lock -> sys/sys/_lockmgr.h
volatile uintptr_t mtx_lock -> struct mtx -> sys/sys/_mutex.h
volatile uintptr_t rw_lock -> struct rwlock -> sys/sys/_rwlock.h
volatile uintptr_t sx_lock -> struct sx -> sys/sys/_sx.h
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
I patch the entries definitions in structures by align attribute, I believe it 
is better than to do nothing. Moreover, it solved my problem.

Patch attached with submission follows:
