I think you misunderstand what there is written.
For DCR is register address with offset + 0x1 but still you are writing there 32bit values. It is not direct access.
and it is not any unaligned access at all. But bus access it will be unaligned access but not for DCR.
DCR is defined just for PPC right now because none wanted to do it for Microblaze.

Michal
