[PATCH AUTOSEL for 4.4 16/36] gianfar: fix a flooded alignment reports because of padding issue.

[ Upstream commit 58117672943734715bbe7565ac9f062effa524f0 ]

According to LS1021A RM, the value of PAL can be set so that the start of the
IP header in the receive data buffer is aligned to a 32-bit boundary. Normally,
setting PAL = 2 provides minimal padding to ensure such alignment of the IP
header.

However every incoming packet's 8-byte time stamp will be inserted into the
packet data buffer as padding alignment bytes when hardware time stamping is
enabled.

So we set the padding 8+2 here to avoid the flooded alignment faults:

root@128:~# cat /proc/cpu/alignment

System:         17539 (inet_gro_receive+0x114/0x2c0)
