net: Remove LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE The macro LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE was ill-conceived. It applies the alignment to the sum of needed_headroom and needed_tailroom. As the amount that is then reserved for head room is needed_headroom with alignment, this means that the tail room left may be too small. Now that all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE have been removed, this patch finally removes the macro itself.
