While the zerocopy method is correctly omitted if user space
does not support unaligned Netlink messages. The attribute is
still not padded correctly as skb_zerocopy() will not ensure
padding and the attribute size is no longer pre calculated
though nla_reserve() which ensured padding previously.
This patch applies appropriate padding if a linear data copy
was performed in skb_zerocopy().

    This shouldn't pass checkpatch.pl which complains about assignments inside 
*if* statements.
