Are you sure you do not need to adjust stmmac_set_bfsize(), 
stmmac_rx_buf1_len() and stmmac_rx_buf2_len() ?

Presumably DEFAULT_BUFSIZE also want to be increased by NET_SKB_PAD

Patch for stmmac_rx_buf1_len() :

 static unsigned int stmmac_rx_buf2_len(struct stmmac_priv *priv,
Feels like a major deficiency of the original patch. Happy to test a
more complete patch if/when you have one.
I wont have time in the immediate future.

Matteo, if you do not work on a fix, I suggest we revert
 a955318fe67ec0d962760b5ee58e74bffaf649b8 stmmac: align RX buffers

before a more polished version can be submitted.
Better to use stmmac_rx_offset() so to have the correct length when
using XDP. Also, when XDP is enabled, the offset was
XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM (i.e. 256 bytes) even before the change, so it
could be already broken. Mark, can you try on the Jetson TX2 by
attaching an XDP program and see if it works without my change?

A possible fix, which takes in account also the XDP headroom for
stmmac_rx_buf1_len() only could be (only compile tested, I don't have
the hardware now):
