Good stuff! I was sort of worried that you might end up getting unaligned
traps in the IP stack but it's good to see that you didn't.  Of course
it's still something that we need to fix up at some point for other

That's kind of expected because we haven't completely fixed up the
user-kernel wireless interface for the 32-in-64 case.  But rest assured
we will be working on that.
