4.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@xxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit 235bde1ed3f0fff0f68f367ec8807b89ea151258 ]

Commit 3ac72b7b63d5 ("net: fec: align IP header in hardware") breaks
networking on mx28.

There is an erratum on mx28 (ENGR121613 - ENET big endian mode
not compatible with ARM little endian) that requires an additional
byte-swap operation to workaround this problem.

So call swap_buffer() prior to performing the IP header alignment
to restore network functionality on mx28.

Fixes: 3ac72b7b63d5 ("net: fec: align IP header in hardware")
