If there is no alignment guarantee for starting_address, then the same
is true for disk_instance which may spread over two u64 blocks.

In case of DEVICE_PATH_SUB_TYPE_MEMORY we don't use memcpy() to align u64.

I don't think we call device_path_to_text before allow_unaligned().

There is a family of functions like get_unaligned_le64() if we should
ever need to a align a value. Or we could copy the whole device path node.

Best regards
