Subject: [PATCH] fs_enet: fix freescale FCC ethernet dp buffer alignment

From: Clive Stubbings <clive.stubbings@...tech.co.uk>

The RIPTR and TIPTR  (receive/transmit internal temporary data pointer),
used by microcode as a temporary buffer for data, must be 32-byte aligned
according to the RM for MPC8247.

Tested on mgcoge.

This fixes a kernel crash on mgcoge when using SPI on CPM2 and
ethernet over FCC. Now fixed because the fcc driver now allocates
the space he really needs.
