mac80211: fix alignment warning
When I introduced the alignment warning I forgot the A-MSDU case which
has a different requirement because each frame contains 14-byte 802.3
headers in front of the IP payload. This patch moves the alignment
warning to a place where we know whether we're dealing with an A-MSDU
frame and adjusts it accordingly.
