[Qemu-block] [PULL 24/37] qcow2: avoid misaligned 64bit bswap

Subject: [Qemu-block] [PULL 24/37] qcow2: avoid misaligned 64bit bswap
Date: Thu, 5 Nov 2015 19:17:52 +0100

From: John Snow <address@hidden>

If we create a buffer directly on the stack by using 12 bytes, there's
no guarantee the 64bit value we want to swap will be aligned, which
could cause errors with undefined behavior.

Spotted with clang -fsanitize=undefined and observed in iotests 15, 26,
44, 115 and 121.
