Use netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align on newer SoCs with integrated switch (enetsw) when refilling RX. Increases packet processing performance by 30% (with netif_receive_skb_list). Non-enetsw SoCs cannot function with the extra pad so continue to use the regular netdev_alloc_skb. Tested on BCM6328 320 MHz and iperf3 -M 512 to measure packet/sec performance.
