Subject: [PATCH net-next 5/6] pppoe: slight optimization of addr compare

Joe Perches add ether_addr_equal_unaligned to test if
possibly unaligned to u16 Ethernet addresses are equal.

If CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is set, this uses
the slightly faster generic routine ether_addr_equal,
otherwise this uses memcmp.
