require that the DMA receive buffers be aligned. The driver was
deliberately mis-aligning by 2 bytes, to force the layer-2/3
headers to 32-bit alignment.
Workaround: if chip is a 5701, and is in PCI-X mode, leave the DMA
buffers aligned. If the host CPU requires alignment, copy the buffer
after reception to force aligment.
Tested on an i386 in PCI-X bus, with __NO_STRICT_ALIGNMENT forced off.
Patch and comments reworked to minimize drift from

Thanks to Paul Saab @mu.org.
Add cpp definitions for the DMA control register fields needed for
5703/5704 configuration on PCI-X.
Add softc copy of internal"local control" register clobbered by reset.
Written by Bill Paul for FreeBSD. This port started out with the
port done to OpenBSD by nate@openbsd.org, but ended up looking much
more like the port of the ti driver done by drochner@netbsd.org
(they are similar in structure).
