In commit 07d2a628bc00 ("powerpc/64s: Avoid cpabort in context switch when possible") a buffer 'dummy_copy_buffer' was introduced. gcc does not see this buffer being used in the inline assembly within function '__switch_to', explicitly marked this variable as being used.
Prefer using '__aligned' to get passed line over 80 characters warning in checkpatch.
This remove the following warning:
arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c:1156:17: error: 'dummy_copy_buffer' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-const-variable=]
