3.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Karl Beldan <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit a63ba13eec092b70d4e5522d692eaeb2f9747387 ]

The crafted header start address is from a driver supplied buffer, which
one can reasonably expect to be aligned on a 4-bytes boundary.
However ATM the TSO helper API is only used by ethernet drivers and
the tcp header will then be aligned to a 2-bytes only boundary from the
header start address.
