Commit 4fc9b87bae25 ("net: fs_enet: Implement NETIF_F_SG feature")
brings a trouble to Freescale MPC512x: a kernel oops happens
during sending non-linear sk_buff with .data not aligned by 4.
Log quotation:
Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0xd067c000
Faulting instruction address: 0xc000cd44
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
MPC512x generic

---[ end trace 08fef9a8ee013f63 ]---
The reason:
MPC5121 FEC requires 4-byte alignment for TX data buffer and calls
tx_skb_align_workaround() for copying sk_buff with not aligned .data to a new
sk_buff with aligned one. But tx_skb_align_workaround() uses
skb_copy_from_linear_data() which doesn't work well for non-linear sk_buff:
a new sk_buff has non-zero nr_frags and zero .data_len.
So disabling NETIF_F_SG for Freescale MPC5121 might be better than handling
improper alignment for sk_buff.data and all the fragments.
