Some architectures have strict alignment requirements. In that case,
the BPF verifier detects if a program has unaligned accesses and
rejects them. A user can pass BPF_F_ANY_ALIGNMENT to a program to
override this check. That, however, will only work when a privileged
user loads a program. A unprivileged user loading a program with this
flag will be rejected prior entering the verifier.

Hence, it does not make sense to load unprivileged programs without
strict alignment when testing the verifier. This patch avoids exactly
that.

I'd include this paragraph as a code comment right next to the check below.

It's a bit convoluted. This seems a bit more straightforward:

#ifndef CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
    if (test->flags & F_NEEDS_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS)
        return false;
#endif
/* the rest of logic untouched */

?

Ugh. Yes, indeed. *blush*
