Summary: UBSan doesn't catch misaligned access if address is
16-bytes (or more) aligned

Repro case
Let's say we have struct that requires 64-bytes alignment.
struct test_struct {
unsigned long a;
int b;
} __attribute__((__aligned__(64)));
UBSan will not catch misaligned access if address of such struct is 16 bytes
aligned.
If address is not aligned to 16 bytes, UBSan will catch it, but alignment in
report is wrong (16 instead of 64):
misaligned_test.c:14:80: runtime error: member access within misaligned address
0x0000006011cf for type 'struct test_struct', which requires 16 byte alignment
0x0000006011cf: note: pointer points here
