For the networking code and for hardware network accelerators, it is better to have IP header 4*n aligned. On the other side, DMA on Rx path require buffer to be aligned on 4*n as well. Having 14 bytes of Ethernet header, these 2 alignment requests are in contradiction.
To solve this, order hardware offload block to not remove SNAP header. This adds extra 6 bytes between addresses and ethertype, making it 20 bytes total. This way, both buffer and IP header are 4*n aligned. Remaining is only to remove SNAP by shifting addresses 6 bytes. This involves data copying, so this feature should be disabled unless required by the platform.
Module parameter "rx_align_2" (bool, default - false) introduced to control this feature. Feature is completely disabled when parameter is false.
