net: fec: align IP header in hardware
The FEC receive accelerator (RACC) supports shifting the data payload of
received packets by 16-bits, which aligns the payload (IP header) on a
4-byte boundary, which is, if not required, at least strongly suggested
by the Linux networking layer.
Without this patch, a huge number of alignment faults will be taken by the
IP stack, as seen in /proc/cpu/alignment:
~/$ cat /proc/cpu/alignment

User faults: 3 (fixup+warn)
This patch was suggested by Andrew Lunn in this message to linux-netdev:
