This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-
azure-6.8/6.8.0-1017.20~22.04.1 kernel in -proposed solves the problem.
Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the
problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-jammy-linux-
azure-6.8' to 'verification-done-jammy-linux-azure-6.8'. If the problem
still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-jammy-linux-azure-6.8'
to 'verification-failed-jammy-linux-azure-6.8'.


If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.


See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Microsoft has requested us to backport the following bugfix:

  32316f676b4e ("net: mana: Fix RX buf alloc_size alignment and atomic op 
panic")
  
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git/commit/?id=32316f676b4e

  [Fix]

  Clean-cherry pick to the trees (oracular/noble/jammy) containing the 
following break commit:
  80f6215b450e ("net: mana: Add support for jumbo frame")

  [Test plan]

  Compile tested only.

  [Where problems could occur]

  This is a minor adjustment to the allocated size for MANA RX buffers,
  fixing the alignment of the resulting SKB in order to improve
  performance and avoid alignment faults during atomic operations on
  ARM64. As such, the regression risk seems to be low (especially
  considering the allocated size for the buffer will end up being
  bigger, not smaller), but any issues here would impact the reception
  of network packets in MANA.
