David, maybe we should add following helper :

[PATCH] net: Add netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align() helper

Instead of hardcoding NET_IP_ALIGN stuff in various network drivers, we can
add a helper around netdev_alloc_skb()

Looks ok, but I want to look at how often this exact sequence
would match.  If it applies to a lot of cases, I'll add this
but I know of many exceptions in my head already :-)
