Subject: [PATCH V2 net] tuntap: properly align skb->head before building skb

An unaligned alloc_frag->offset caused by previous allocation will
result an unaligned skb->head. This will lead unaligned
skb_shared_info and then unaligned dataref which requires to be
aligned for accessing on some architecture. Fix this by aligning
alloc_frag->offset before the frag refilling.
