[IA64] sysctl option to silence unaligned trap warnings
Allow sysadmin to disable all warnings about userland apps making unaligned accesses by using: # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ignore-unaligned-usertrap Rather than having to use prctl on a process by process basis. Default behaivour leaves the warnings enabled. Signed-off-by: Jes Sorensen <jes@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
