Tested on avr32. The patch seems to work (basic shell testing), however
it generates an aliasing warning:
---8<---

I think it has something to do with tha fact that you re-cast the
anonymous struct 'start' here:
---8<---
#define ll_entry_start(_type, _list)
({
static struct {} start __aligned(4) __attribute__((unused,
section(".u_boot_list_2_"#_list"_1")));
(_type *)&start;
})
--->8---
I think other gcc-4.4 users will see the same error. Currently I have no
time to dive into this.
Best regards
