[PATCH v4] Add payload to be 32-bit aligned to fix dropped packets

From: Kumar Thangavel <hidden>
Date: 2021-11-10 09:54:41

Update NC-SI command handler (both standard and OEM) to take into
account of payload paddings in allocating skb (in case of payload
size is not 32-bit aligned).

The checksum field follows payload field, without taking payload
padding into account can cause checksum being truncated, leading to
dropped packets.

  v4:
   - Updated existing macro for max function

  v3:
   - Added Macro for MAX
   - Fixed the missed semicolon

  v2:
   - Added NC-SI spec version and section
   - Removed blank line
   - corrected spellings

  v1:
   - Initial draft
