From: Gertjan van Wingerde <gwingerde@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Rework the alignment check in rt2x00dev.c to be independent of any potential
alignment measures that may be taken before. Just check whether the payload is
aligned based on the pointer addresses.
Note: This is preparatory for the dynamically mapped skb buffers for the PCI
drivers, as these need 4-byte alignment instead of the currently enforced offset
by 2 bytes.
