net: rtl8169: Properly align buffers
RX and TX descriptor rings should be aligned to 256 byte boundaries. Use the DEFINE_ALIGN_BUFFER() macro to define the buffers so that they don't have to be manually aligned later on. Also make sure that the buffers do align to cache-line boundaries in case the cache-line is higher than the 256 byte alignment requirements of the NIC. Also add a warning if the cache-line size is larger than the descriptor size, because the driver may discard changes to descriptors made by the hardware when requeuing RX buffers.
