It's implicit in the DImode mode of the type. If you'd like to reduce
the alignment of local variables, use the MINIMUM_ALIGNMENT macro; see
the i386 port for an example.

Yes, that's the whole point of the patch, to honor alignment as given.

The cris port fails to define EXIT_IGNORE_STACK to indicate this.
Without that, the middle-end thinks it must save/restore sp around
the function. Frankly, there's nothing otherwise unusual about this
new alloca from any other. I guess you've just never noticed this
extra save previously?

I assume that's a stack slot for a spilled pseudo?
