Subject: [RESEND/patch 2.6.25-rc2-git] net/enc28j60: oops fix

Prevent oops on enc28j60 packet RX:  make sure buffers are aligned.
Not all architectures support unaligned accesses in kernel space.

Seems the enc28j60 patches didn't get picked up, ergo resend...
they're not in net-2.6.git, even this oops fix.
