Second try, hopefully correct this time:

skb = dev_alloc_skb (4K + alignment);
skb_reserve (skb, alignment);
dma_pointer = pci_map_single (pdev, skb->tail, 4K, PCI_DMA_FROMDEVICE);
/* await completion of DMA */
pci_unmap_single (pdev, dma_pointer, 4K, PCI_DMA_FROMDEVICE);
skb_put (skb, length_of_whole_packet);

(Note: skb->tail instead of skb->head!)
