Subject: [PATCH 17/21] r8169: align the IP header when there is no DMA constraint

Align the IP header when the chipset can DMA at any location (plain 0x8169).
Otherwise (0x8136/0x8168) obey the constraint imposed by the hardware.

This patch complements the previous alignment rework done for copybreak.

Original idea from Philip Craig <philipc@...pgear.com>
