Please, disregard patch, as it is incorrect; resending correct patch
shortly with better explanation of the fix.

I can't find your v2 archived in lore, so responding to this thread.

If you want a patch merged to networking, you'll have to cc
netdev@vger.kernel.org and the networking maintainers.

Consider running scripts/get_maintainer.pl and also see
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/process/maintainer-netdev.rst

Thanks, sending v2 of the patch that uses put_unaligned() here, and
get_unaligned().

You just changed the meaning of the code on big-endian machines.

I think it would be better to use put_unaligned() here, and
get_unaligned() below.

Prevent data alignment fault on architectures which cannot
do unaligned memory access.
