Kumar Thangavel 440bd9faad net/ncsi : Add payload to be 32-bit aligned to fix dropped packets
[ Upstream commit ac132852147ad303a938dda318970dd1bbdfda4e ]

Update NC-SI command handler (both standard and OEM) to take into
account of payload paddings in allocating skb (in case of payload
size is not 32-bit aligned).

The checksum field follows payload field, without taking payload
padding into account can cause checksum being truncated, leading to
dropped packets.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
