4.3+: Atheros ethernet fails after resume from s2ram, due to order 4 allocation

Hi!

...and dmesg tells us what is going on:

Order 4 allocation... probably doable during boot, but not really
suitable during resume.

I'm not sure how repeatable it is, but it definitely happened more
than once.

        /*                                                                      
         * real ring DMA buffer                                                 
         * each ring/block may need up to 8 bytes for alignment, hence the      
         * additional bytes tacked onto the end.                                
         */
        ring_header->size = size =
                sizeof(struct atl1c_tpd_desc) * tpd_ring->count * 2 +
                sizeof(struct atl1c_rx_free_desc) * rx_desc_count +
                sizeof(struct atl1c_recv_ret_status) * rx_desc_count +
                8 * 4;

        ring_header->desc = pci_alloc_consistent(pdev, ring_header->size,
                                &ring_header->dma);
        if (unlikely(!ring_header->desc)) {
                dev_err(&pdev->dev, "pci_alloc_consistend failed\n");
                goto err_nomem;
        }

(Note the typo in dev_err... at least it is easy to grep).

Ok, so what went on is easy.. any ideas how to fix it?
