[U-Boot] [PATCH 3/3] [repost]: arm: kirkwood: See to it that sent data is 8-byte aligned

U-boot might use non-8-byte-aligned addresses for sending data, which
the kwgbe_send doesn't accept (bootp does this for me). This patch
copies the data to be sent to a malloced temporary buffer if it is
non-aligned.

v2: Malloc send buffer
v3: No need to use jumbo frames, use 1518 bytes buffer instead
v4: Correct alignment passed to memalign (should be 8!),
    allocate buffer at initialization(), use PKTSIZE_ALIGN
