JIRA: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-151869 commit 9eabb2a5e499ec3e5a013157844335a487c7cb5e Author: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com> Date: Fri Dec 5 16:43:06 2025 -0800 KVM: x86: Drop guest-triggerable ASSERT()s on I/O APIC access alignment Drop the asserts on the guest-controlled address being 16-byte aligned when emulating I/O APIC accesses, as the ASSERT()s are guest-triggerable and ultimately pointless since KVM requires exact register matches, i.e. will ultimately ignore unaligned accesses anyways. Drop the ASSERT() definition itself now that all users are gone. For all intents and purposes, no functional change intended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
