David S. Miller d6301d3dd1 net: Increase default NET_SKB_PAD to 32.
Several devices need to insert some "pre headers" in front of the
main packet data when they transmit a packet.

Currently we allocate only 16 bytes of pad room and this ends up not
being enough for some types of hardware (NIU, usb-net, s390 qeth,
etc.)

So increase this to 32.

Note that drivers still need to check in their transmit routine
whether enough headroom exists, and if not use skb_realloc_headroom().
Tunneling, IPSEC, and other encapsulation methods can cause the
padding area to be used up.
