net: bridge: enfore alignment for ethernet address
[ Upstream commit db7202dec92e6caa2706c21d6fc359af318bde2e ]
The eth_addr member is passed to ether_addr functions that require
2-byte alignment, therefore the member must be properly aligned
to avoid unaligned accesses.
The problem is in place since the initial merge of multicast to unicast:
commit 6db6f0eae6052b70885562e1733896647ec1d807 bridge: multicast to unicast
Fixes: 6db6f0eae605 ("bridge: multicast to unicast")
