net: nla_align_64bit() needs to test the right pointer.

2016-04-20T19:32:54+00:00

Netlink messages are appended, one object at a time, to the end of
the SKB.  Therefore we need to test skb_tail_pointer() not skb->data
for alignment.

net: fix HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS typos

2016-04-20T14:53:22+00:00

HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS needs CONFIG_ prefix.

Also add a comment in nla_align_64bit() explaining we have
to add a padding if current skb->data is aligned, as it
certainly can be confusing.
