Here is a second version which uses malloc instead. It's still handled
in the driver though.

Subject: [PATCH] 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.
