Can someone please look, what could cause unaligned access at this
aa_dfa_unpack function/structure ?

A quick guess would be that you are using nulldfa.
And this variable may not be aligned.

Try to check the address of nulldfa_src.

You could also try to force the compiler to align the data
to 8 byte like this (security/apparmor/match.c):

static char nulldfa_src[] = {
        #include "nulldfa.in"
} __aligned(8);  		<= see the added __aligned(8)

This is just from a quick look at things, but please try it to
see if this is the problematic spot.
