The implementations of wait_on_bit*() will only work with long-aligned
memory on systems that don't support misaligned loads and stores.
This patch changes the function prototypes to ensure that the compiler
will enforce alignment.
Running
make defconfig
make KFLAGS="-Werror"
seems to indicate that, as of c56fb6564dcd ("Fix a misaligned load
inside ptrace_attach()"), there are now no users of non-long-aligned
calls to wait_on_bit*(). I additionally tried a few "make randconfig"
attempts, none of which failed to compile for this reason.
