[Xen-devel] [PATCH LIVEPATCH-BUILD-TOOLS 2/2] Remove section alignment requirement

[Ross Lagerwall <ross.lagerwall@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Remove the requirement that section twins have the same alignment. The
section alignment of the patched section is respected by the loader in
Xen so it shouldn't matter if the original section alignment was
different.
