Hi

I've noticed that the Broadcom Wifi chip performs unaligned SDIO access 
during the station scan on Khadas VIM3l board. This issue went unnoticed 
so far, because there was a workaround in the meson MMC driver, which 
has been recently disabled by commit e085b51c74cc ("mmc: meson-gx: check 
for scatterlist size alignment in block mode") from current linux-next.

I can easily reproduce this issue with the following commands:

Surprisingly the same commands executed on the Khadas VIM3 board with 
the same kernel don't trigger the warning.

Let me know if I can help debugging this issue.

Best regards
