Does RISC-V care about alignment? A 64-bit quantity is not guaranteed
to appear 64-bit aligned in the DT, and the cast violates C alignment
rules, so this should probably used get_unaligned_be64() or something
like that.

When running in S-mode the SBI handles unaligned access but this has a
performance penalty.

We could use fdt64_to_cpu(__get_unaligned_t(fdt64_t, prop)) here.

Thank you very much for the feedback. Have updated as per your
suggestion and sent V2.
