With a planned cleanup, using put_unaligned() on a single character
results in a harmless warning:
In file included from ./arch/x86/include/generated/asm/unaligned.h:1,
from include/linux/etherdevice.h:24,
from net/core/netpoll.c:18:
net/core/netpoll.c: In function 'netpoll_send_udp':

net/core/netpoll.c:431:3: note: in expansion of macro 'put_unaligned'
431 | put_unaligned(0x60, (unsigned char *)ip6h);

Replace this with an open-coded pointer dereference.
