[PATCH 3 of 5] xen-netfront: Avoid unaligned accesses to IPheader

[Jeremy Fitzhardinge]

From: Isaku Yamahata <yamahata@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Align ip header to a 16 byte boundary to avoid unaligned
access like other drivers.
Without this patch, xen-netfront doesn't work well on ia64.

[ Jeff, this is the only patch in the series which is in your
  territory. -J ]
