The UEFI spec stipulates that unaligned accesses should be enabled
on CPUs that support them, which means all of them, given that we
no longer support pre-v7 ARM cores, and the AARCH64 bindings mandate
support for unaligned accesses unconditionally.

This means that one should not assume that CopyMem () is safe to call
on regions that may be mapped using device attributes, which is the
case for the NOR flash. Since we have no control over the mappings when
running under the OS, and given that write accesses require device
mappings, we should not call CopyMem () in the read path either, but
use our own implementation that is guaranteed to take alignment into
account.

This is an important fix - but one comment (and a tiny bit of
bikeshedding) below:

Maybe a comment here clarifying that we're following CopyMem semantics
(buffers may overlap) rather than memcpy semantics (buffers must not
overlap)?

Can we be sure the compiler won't occasionally do something "clever"
unless the above are all pointer-to-volatile?

Could we have a macro in here to keep the line length down?
Like
BOTH_ALIGNED(x, y, z) (!(((UINTN)x & ((z >> 3) - 1)) | ((UINTN)y & ((z >> 3) - 1))))
called as
BOTH_ALIGNED(DestinationBuffer, SourceBuffer, 64)
BOTH_ALIGNED(DestinationBuffer, SourceBuffer, 32)

Since you're changing these call sites anyway, can we make the casts
to VOID * for clarity?

Well, now that you mention it, we don't require those semantics, and
so I could rip out the code that deals with that.

Well, the original version uses 'volatile' to prevent the compiler
from using its intrinsic memcpy(), but in this case, that would be the
best outcome. In fact, I briefly considered just using memcpy()  ...
