Scott Wood 9b70de6d02 bnx2x: Align RX buffers
The bnx2x driver is not providing proper alignment on the receive buffers it
passes to build_skb(), causing skb_shared_info to be misaligned.
skb_shared_info contains an atomic, and while PPC normally supports
unaligned accesses, it does not support unaligned atomics.

Aligning the size of rx buffers will ensure that page_frag_alloc() returns
aligned addresses.

This can be reproduced on PPC by setting the network MTU to 1450 (or other
non-multiple-of-4) and then generating sufficient inbound network traffic
(one or two large "wget"s usually does it), producing the following oops:

Unable to handle kernel paging request for unaligned access at address 0xc00000ffc43af656
Faulting instruction address: 0xc00000000080ef8c
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 7 [#1]

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
