Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/2] gianfar: Fix data structure field comments in gianfar.h

Improve clarity of struct member comments for tx_q and and rx_q
(see cur_tx, dirty_tx, skb_curtx). Fix misleading comments (see
skb_currx, cur_rx) and remove outdated ones (txcount, txtime).
Make comments readable (and maintainable) by placing them above
the individual targeted members.
Fix checkpatch warnings (see __aligned()) and spacing issues
in the process.
