[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] ether: remove packing and set two-byte alignment

> The ether header does not need to be packed since that makes no sense for
> structures with only bytes in them, but it should be aligned to a two-byte
> boundary to simplify access to it from code. Other packed structures that
> use this also need to be updated to take account of the change, either by
> removing packing - where it is clearly unneeded - or by explicitly giving
> those structures 2-byte alignment also.
