Zumeng Chen 6e95c4f921 gianfar: fix a flooded alignment reports because of padding issue.
[ Upstream commit 5811767294 ]

According to LS1021A RM, the value of PAL can be set so that the start of the
IP header in the receive data buffer is aligned to a 32-bit boundary. Normally,
setting PAL = 2 provides minimal padding to ensure such alignment of the IP
header.

However every incoming packet's 8-byte time stamp will be inserted into the
packet data buffer as padding alignment bytes when hardware time stamping is
enabled.

So we set the padding 8+2 here to avoid the flooded alignment faults:

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
