+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: add NEED_ALIGNED4_SKBS hw flag
+
+HW/driver should set NEED_ALIGNED4_SKBS flag in case
+require aligned skbs to four-byte boundaries.
+This affect only TX direction.
+
+Padding is added after ieee80211_hdr, before IV/LLC.
+
+Before we have to do memmove(hdrlen) twice in the
+dirver. Once before we pass this to HW and next
+in tx completion (to be sure monitor will report
+this tx frame correctly).
+
+With this patch we can skip this memmove() and save CPU.
+
+Currently this was tested with ath9k, both hw/sw crypt for
+wep/tkip/ccmp.
