  Log Message:
  -----------
  [ARM] Set preferred function alignment

Aligning functions yields small performance gains on
embedded cores, moreso with numerous small function calls.
Similar to aligning loops, if the function can fit within
a single cache line then the performance overhead of
fetching more instructions can be limited.
