PR 49169: testing the alignment of a function

This patch fixes PR 49169, where GCC is incorrectly optimising away
a test for whether a function is Thumb rather than ARM.  The patch
was posted by Richard in the PR:

    http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=49169

See the PR for a discussion about whether a target hook is better
(or not, IMO).

Tested on arm-linux-gnueabi, where it fixes the attached testcase.
OK to install?
