This code was written on x86 where unaligned accesses were
easy. LinuxBoot running on aarch64 uses mmap of /dev/mem to read the
smbios table. Linux's mapping of this memory doesn't allow the normal
unaligned fixup, so we get a bus error instead. We can't use the more
natural le16dec and friends because they optimize into a single,
unaligned memory load. We don't see this issue on aarch64 UEFI because
memory is mapped such that unaligned accesses are fixed up.
