I think we have enough of a proliferation of alignment macros, let's not add more.

Either define this to "ALIGN(x, 4)" or expand that into each of the locations:

>  	pchecksum = (__be32 *)((void *)h + sizeof(struct ncsi_pkt_hdr) +
> -		    nca->payload);
> +		    NCSI_ROUND32(nca->payload));

		     ALIGN(nca->payload, 4)

> -	pchecksum = (__be32 *)((void *)(h + 1) + payload - 4);
> +	pchecksum = (__be32 *)((void *)(h + 1) + NCSI_ROUND32(payload) - 4);

						 ALIGN(payload, 4)


etc.
